In the second book of the Lizzy Page series, we learn the story of Clara Newton, who runs a children’s shelter in England after the Second World War. She looks after the children, including the new wards Evelyn and shy Joyce. But the shelter faces the threat of closure, and the children may be transferred to other shelters—or even sent to Australia. Clara will have to find them a new home before it’s too late, and she hopes that Ivor will return, the one who helped her in this situation. This book is full of love and hope and will appeal to those who value stories about war and the importance of human relationships.
