Cheryl Blackford's debut novel is set in England during World War II and
told from the dual perspectives of ten-year-old Lizzie, a homesick girl
evacuated from bomb-blitzed Hull to the remote Yorkshire valley, and
Elijah, a local gypsy boy. When Lizzie discovers an abandoned baby, her
dangerous friendship with Elijah is put to the test. Will Lizzie be able
to find the baby's parents? And if she does, can she and Elijah remain
friends in a world clouded by prejudice and fear?
