Description
Rachel Booker's life begins with hardship. Her father's death leaves her mother struggling to make ends meet, and she becomes hardened against affection and warmth. To survive, they work at Birmingham's open market, selling second-hand clothes and whatever they can find. Among the market's challenges is finding comfort in friendship. Rachel makes a childhood friend, Danny, who grows into something more as they navigate their innocent romance. But when World War II breaks out, their lives are forever changed. Rachel falls pregnant, marries Danny in haste, and must care for a new baby on her own. As the war rages on, Rachel scrapes by with the help of others in Sparkbrook. The question remains: will Danny return to her as the boy she loved, or has the war altered him beyond recognition?
