"A dramatist of exceptional and distinctive promise" (Daily Telegraph) The early 1950s. Two brothers and a sister are marooned on a remote farm after their father's death. They are thrown into a state of panic when one of them makes a bid for freedom. Long-suppressed jealousies and resentments begin to seethe and fester. Thirty years later an unexpected visitor brings their feud to a climax. Flesh and Blood completes Philip Osment's trilogy of Devon plays, following the highly acclaimed The Dearly Beloved (winner, 1993 Writers Guild Award) and What I Did in the Holidays (nominee 1995 Writers Guild Award).

Disowned, former socialite and unwed mother, Shirley Stephens, searches for options to care for herself and her young child after her boyfriend dies while fighting in World War II. Answering an advertisement about a full-time nanny position, she develops a solid backstory to cover her past sins and flees to the faraway town of Sugar Maple, Tennessee. Former war correspondent, Wayne Bishop, lands a job at a mediocre, feel-good newspaper in order to earn money to care for his widowed sister-in-law and her children. His job takes him to a small town to cover the adoption of five street children, but when he discovers the nanny is a war bride struggling to live without her husband he is drawn to her story. Shirley must keep her identity a secret despite the handsome and attentive reporter’s interest, but Wayne Bishop will stop at nothing to uncover her secrets all in the name of good journalism.
