On the Home Front, one girl is determined to make a difference. But Edie' s hopes of serving overseas are dashed when she' s sent to be a Land Girl in a sleepy Cumbrian village. Prue has shut the world out since her son went away to fight. Yet when she' s asked to take in a Land Girl and two little evacuees from London, she has no choice. Edie' s heart breaks, seeing the children' s cold welcome. But when the evacuees take in a stray puppy, even Prue can' t say no. Edie realises Applefield Manor could become a sanctuary. But can she persuade Prue to open her heart, and her home? A moving, uplifting wartime story that fans of Dilly Court will love.
