From your best-selling publisher of Chocolates Young girls comes a brand-new book set on the attempting suburban roads of Birmingham during World War II. Rachel Booker has a hard start in life. When her father dies profound in gambling debts, her mother must harden herself to make ends meet but becomes so difficult she has little room still left for passion or warmth. Mother and daughter just work at the wide open market in Birmingham, retailing second-hand clothes or whatever they can find just to put just a little food up for grabs. However the market has a silver lining: it's there that Rachel makes her first childhood friend, Danny. As they grow older, the friendship develops into something more, and their innocent romance provides Rachel the health care and comfort she's always craved. But at just sixteen, as World War II breaks out, Rachel falls pregnant. They marry in haste, but it isn't a long time before Danny is called up. Rachel must scrape by with the other residents of Sparkbrook. If Danny ever helps it be home, will he be the same youngster she cherished so fiercely? And if Rachel can support the family until then, will she conclude as hard-hearted as her own mother? War Infants is a moving and insightful book about hardships on the homefront and the way the war changed every person it touched.
