As the pressures of rationing, bombing raids and sleepless nights
grow, two sisters must decide what they really want from life –
and if they're brave enough to fight for it. Meet Me Under the
Clock is a beautiful wartime story from Annie Murray. Growing up in
Birmingham, Sylvia and Audrey Whitehouse have always been like
chalk and cheese. When the Second World War breaks out, Sylvia is
still dreaming of her forthcoming marriage to fiancé Ian – while
Audrey jumps at the career opportunities the Women's Auxiliary Air
Force (WAAF) throws her way. Audrey joins the ranks at RAF
Cardington but soon finds that her new freedom also brings
temptation. When she goes too far, the consequences ripple through
the Whitehouse family. Meanwhile, Sylvia is doing her bit as a
railway porter, much to her fiancé’s dismay. He thinks the job
is unfeminine - unlike Sylvia's new friend Kitty, who is as sweet
and pretty as can be. But Kitty's innocent nature hides a dark
secret . . . A heartbreaking yet inspiring wartime set novel,
perfect for fans of Katie Flynn.
