Description

We weren''t supposed to be going to the pictures that night. We weren''t even meant to be outside, not in a blackout, and definitely not when German bombs had been falling on London all month like pennies from a jar. 'Has the feel of a classic.' Sunday Times 'A gripping adventure.' Guardian 'Echoes of Michael Morpurgo.' The Times 'Another beautifully written story.' Sunday Express 'The tension builds until the very end.' Daily Mail February, 1941. After months of bombing raids in London, twelve-year-old Olive Bradshaw and her little brother Cliff are evacuated to the Devon coast. The only person with two spare beds is Mr Ephraim, the local lighthouse keeper. But he's not used to company and he certainly doesn't want any evacuees. Desperate to be helpful, Olive becomes his post-girl, carrying secret messages (as she likes to think of the letters) to the villagers. But Olive has a secret of her own. Her older sister Sukie went missing in an air raid, and she's desperate to discover what happened to her. And then she finds a strange coded note which seems to link Sukie to Devon, and to something dark and impossibly dangerous.
