Two sisters. One secret. A daring wartime journeyâŚ
Desperate to escape their stepfatherâs house, sisters Amy and Lillian stow away aboard a train full of children being evacuated from London and the threat of Hitlerâs bombs.
Arriving in the seaside town of Worthing, they are taken in by kindly Norah and her husband Jim.
With their future now entrusted to strangers, can the girls finally find a safe harbour in these dark days of war?
And will they find the strength to confront what they have been running from, when their past finally catches up with them?
An absolutely heartbreaking and uplifting wartime story of courage, sisterhood and the power of love. Perfect for fans of Shirley Dickson, Glynis Peters and Lisa Wingate.
