Blackpool Lass Troubles lie ahead - will friendship see them
through? BLACKPOOL, 1918. Martha is seventeen and alone in the

help each other any way they can, and they never stop dreaming of a
brighter future. Will a chance encounter on the promenade change
their fortunes? The first in a brand-new series from Maggie Mason,
