Book Description
There’s talk of war and dark clouds fester on the horizon...
Bristol 1938
A shadowy presence overshadows Coronation Close, watching and waiting. Jenny Crawford is the
first to notice the stranger and wonders why his attention is fixed on Thelma Dawson’s house. When
challenged he makes a hasty retreat.
Meanwhile Thelma is having trouble with her precocious daughter Mary who is about to leave school
and start work. Mary considers herself an adult but to Thelma she’s still a little girl; an attitude
resented by her daughter.
Unknown to her mother, Mary is secretly befriended by a stranger, an older man who treats her as
the grown up she thinks she is. But what does this man want with this naïve young girl?
Problems shared are problems halved. Jenny and Thelma certainly share theirs as the shadow of war
rolls over from Europe and nothing seems certain.
