in wartime Birmingham Agnes Sullivan is fifteen when her young
brother Tom finds her drunk and crying in the lane near their farm.

forced to leave home when she discovers she's pregnant and Tom,
barely a teenager himself, decides the teacher must pay for his
actions. Aggie flees to Birmingham, but the safe haven she's been
promised turns out to be too dangerous to stay in. She's left with
few options until someone she would never have spoken to in her
former life gives her the help she so desperately needs. But will
World War One ruin her precarious hopes of a future? Anne Bennett's
sagas of Birmingham during the wars have won her many fans, as they
are packed full of emotion, determination and authenticity.
Regional sagas don't come any better than this.
