Description
While Britain was at war, women took on new roles to keep the country moving. In July 1914, Constance Copeland left her privileged past behind and signed up as a Clippie, collecting money and giving out tickets on the trams. She soon found friendship and connection with fellow workers Betty and Jean, and grew closer to Inspector Robert Caldwell. As Constance navigated her new life, she was haunted by secrets that threatened to destroy her carefully constructed existence. As the war drew to a close and men returned home, Constance wondered if she could return to her old life or had she been changed forever by her experiences on the trams. This is a story about women who found strength and purpose in unexpected ways, and the power of new relationships to transform lives.
