Book one in a compelling, wartime sequence from a best-selling author, and master of the genre.
'Vicky asked to sit beside May Tully at school, with the excuse of getting help with her Irish. They walked home together ahead of me, sniggering at the boys. I hated them and wished the war was over so that Vicky would go home. No such luck.'
It is 1941. Britain is in the grip of the Second World War, and in Ireland, ten year-old Lizzie Doyle is getting on with her life, trying to adjust to "The Emergency" and the arrival of her "wild" cousin, Vicky, from England.
Vicky is trouble. She's a flirt, she's devious and she's headstrong. Can she and good-natured Lizzie ever be real friends?
