As war changes the world beyond their village, the women of Larkbury must stand together as never before…
Dorset, 1915. Evie Collier dreams of working at the local railway station as a signalman, just like her father, who is now missing in action. But with women barred from the role, she must settle for a position as the station’s ticket clerk. Then the arrival of a new signalman and his family turns her world upside down, forcing Evie and her mother from the cottage they have always called home.
Meanwhile, Florence Stokes, whose family has taken over the railway cottage, is struggling to adjust to life in the country after being uprooted from Guildford. Keen to make a fresh start, she takes a job at the village draper’s, hoping to find her place in the community. If only she could win over Evie, who seems intent on keeping her at arm’s length.
And Daisy O’Connor, Evie’s best friend, has recently been promoted to lady’s maid at Larkbury Hall. Though she tries to deny her growing feelings for Lord Larkbury’s son, Daisy soon faces a choice that could change the course of her life.
Determined to take charge of their own futures, Evie, Florence and Daisy find strength, support and friendship in one another. But will it be enough to see them through the dark days of war?
