The second novel in bestseller Maureen Lee's outstanding Liverpool
sequence about family life during the Second World War September
1940 - the cruellest year of war for Britain's civilians as the
Luftwaffe mercilessly blitz their cities. In Pearl Street, near
Liverpool's docks, families struggle to cope the best they can. A
nasty surprise for ever-cheerful dressmaker Brenda Mahon, and
flighty Sean's love for little Alice, show how life goes on even
when it appears to be falling apart. Yet while Eileen Costello
tries to hide her ruined hopes of happiness with Nick, and do her
best by the husband she hoped had gone for ever, Ruth Singerman
returns, having escaped from Austria. Even the joy of seeing her
father again cannot make up for the bitter loss of her children.
