About this book:
HOME’S NOT ALWAYS WHERE THE HEART IS.
When Maddy Belfield loses her family and home in the Blitz, she is sent to live with relatives in the Yorkshire Dales.
En route, Maddy befriends Gloria Conley and her brother Sid, abandoned by their desperate mother. Although Maddy and Gloria are chalk and cheese, they vow to be forever friends
Slowly Maddy adjusts to her new life. Eager to help the war effort, her Aunt Plum has opened up a home for ‘difficult’ evacuees and Maddy and Gloria quickly become part of a motley crew, including headstrong Greg and flighty Enid.
The friendship endures into adulthood, until a tragic event tears them apart and Maddy flees to London.
Years later, Fate reunites them all. But a visit back to Yorkshire reveals the truth about the past – a revelation that has unimaginable consequences.
