In the thick of the chaos is young American radio reporter Frankie Bard. She huddles close to terrified strangers in underground shelters, and later broadcasts stories about survivors in rubble-strewn streets. But for her listeners, the war is far from home.

Listening to Frankie are Iris James, a Cape Cod postmistress, and Emma Fitch, a doctor's wife. Iris hears the wind stirring and knows that soon the letters she delivers will bear messages of hope or tragedy. Emma is desparate for news of London, where her husband is working - she counts the days until his return.......

Going onto mount TBR etc.

Well I stuck with it, but have to say I didn't really enjoy it. I think there was an interesting germ of a story in this but poorly executed. I found the three main characters verging on shallowness due to lack of development and depth. Maybe I just like more layers to my stories and this one was too much surface. Will release soon at the OBCZ, I'm sure it will find a more appreciative reader soon!
