โœฆ Synopsis


It's 1940 and the German Luftwaffe have started their nightly reign of death and destruction over London's East End. The Brogan family is braced and ready to take on Hitler single-handed, if need be, but with rationing, air-raids and the threat of Nazi invasion hanging over this doughty family, their spirits are taking a bit of a battering...For Jo, the youngest of the Brogan sisters and newly qualified as an ambulance driver, the freedom of her job also offers the chance to see the love of her life, Tommy Sweete, more often. But Tommy's dangerous reputation means he's disapproved of by her family, and any chance of happiness seems very far away. As the Blitz devastates their homes and neighbourhood, can their love survive the horrors of war-time London?

"A delightful, well-researched story that really does depict nursing and the living conditions in the East End at the end of the war." โ€” Lesley Pearce on Call Nurse Millie

" A beautifully written sequel that gives you a fab insight into the life of a nurse in London's East End in the '40s." โ€” Closer on All Change for Nurse Millie
