With her parents gone, it falls to her to support her grandfather and her younger sister, Joan. But times are tough in the midst of war and most jobs only afford meagre pay, so Livvy makes the difficult decision to sell herself on the streets in order to make ends meet. Her choice brings harsh judgement from local gossips, but Livvy can ignore them for her family’s sake. Joan is growing up, and Livvy’s determined that her life will be free of care. It’s harder to keep her unsavoury secret from the good, kind man who’s falling in love with her. But then things take a darker turn. A US soldier begins harassing her – with dreadful consequences – and Livvy’s life spirals out of control . . . Will she be able to find the peace, love and happiness she deserves, or will she lose everything she's fought to protect? The third book in Emma Hornby's page-turning Worktown Girls at War series
