A classic love story from the award-winning author of Goodnight, Mister Tom.


It is the summer of 1943 and war continues to rage. For Rose and her sister Diana, it's a time of independence and self-discovery as they find first loves. But when Rose uncovers an extraordinary love story from another war, she is forced to question that love. Rose is about to discover a secret that will change everything.


Michelle Magorian combines her rich style with a refreshing take on wartime women in this classic coming of age story.


The perfect read for everyone who loved Marcuz Zusak's The Book Thief or Nina Bawden's Carrie's War.
