As evacuees from Blitz-stricken London, Charles and his little brother Wes have survived a deadly journey across the Atlantic to reach the safety of America. Yet Charles is overcome by guilt that, back home, his friends and family are fighting on without him, while Wes is haunted by terrifying nightmares.
Together, they struggle to come to terms with their new life on a family farm - where German prisoners of war work side by side with them in the fields.
Award-winning author L.M. Elliot brings a rarely told story of World War II overseas evacuation to life in this enlightening and meticulously-researched novel, a companion to the acclaimed Under a War-Torn Sky.
L.M. Elliott is the award-winning author of many acclaimed books, including Under a War-Torn Sky, Flying South and Across Enemy Seas. She lives in Virginia with her family.
