"On the Home Front, one girl is determined to make a difference. 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 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?"--Provided by publisher.
