"Faced with daily danger, can they keep calm and carry on?"--Cover.
May, 1941. Meet the Air Raid Girls - three young women who join the war effort during the Yorkshire Blitz. Connie is an ARP warden and persuades her sister Lizzie to become an ambulance driver - their friend Pamela is also keen to do her bit when her home is destroyed in a night raid. As the women face a baptism of fire: the shock of night shifts during blackout, bombing raids and the destruction of their previously orderly world, can their fighting spirit stand up to the realities of modern warfare? And what of their families and the men they love? A heart-warming, romantic story of friendship, camaraderie and triumph over adversity that fans of Donna Douglas, Nancy Revell and Call the Midwife will adore.
