A stunning and heartbreaking new novel from Jamila Gavin, the
bestselling and award-winning author of Coram Boy and The Wheel of
Surya. England, 1937. Gwen, Noor, Dodo and Vera are four very
different teenage girls, with something in common. Their parents
are all abroad, leaving them in their English boarding school,
where they soon form an intense friendship. The four friends think
that no matter what, they will always have each other. Then the war
comes. The girls find themselves flung to different corners of the
war, from the flying planes in the Air Transport Auxiliary to going
undercover in the French Resistance. Each journey brings danger and
uncertainty as each of them wonders if they can make it through -
and what will be left of the world. But at the same time, this is
what shows them who they really are - and against this impossible
backdrop, they find new connections and the possibility of love.
Will the four friends ever see each other again? And when the war
is over, who will be left to tell the story? A heartbreaking and
gripping story of hope, fear and unbreakable friendship, for
readers of Code Name Verity and When the World Was Ours.
