Description

Twelve-year-old Grace Devine lives at Blacksod Lighthouse and weather station in County Mayo with her parents and little brother. When a German plane crashes nearby, she and her best friend Sibby risk their lives to save the young pilot. The incident sparks tension among their neighbours, who are horrified by having an 'enemy' in their midst. The Met Office in England suddenly asks Blacksod to send them weather reports every hour, but why? As the wind and rain howl outside, Grace begins to understand that something important is happening, something to do with the war. She finds herself right at the centre of a remarkable story of bravery, adventure, and friendship. Inspired by true events from World War 2, this book tells the tale of a young girl's courage and resilience in the face of uncertainty.
