Wartime Friends is a tale of unbreakable bonds in times of strife,
by bestselling author Margaret Dickinson. It is 1940s coastal
Lincolnshire and Carolyn Holmes is keen to do what she can for the
war effort. Raised on the family farm, she is prevented by her
mother from going to secretarial college. Phyllis Carter, a widow
from the Great War, lives close by with her son, Peter, who works
on the farm. Peter and Carolyn are great friends but do not see a
future together, although it is the dearest wish of both mothers to
see them marry. After their home town is caught in an air raid,
Peter decides to volunteer - to the distress of his mother - and
Carolyn leaves to join the ATS, where she meets Beryl Morley, who
will become a lifelong friend. Carolyn and Beryl are posted to
Beaumanor Hall as 'listeners', the most difficult of signals
intelligence gathering, intercepting enemy messages which are then
sent to Bletchley Park for deciphering. As the war unfolds and
their work becomes even more vital, Carolyn and Beryl's friendship
strengthens and, in the dangerous times that follow, they will both
need the support of the other as they face personal troubles of
their own and the lives of those they love are put at risk.
