In the dark streets shining

Edición de la obra In the Dark Streets Shining

After Rose Brown's husband is killed at Dunkirk in 1940, she is determined to pick herself up and start again. Wanting to help the war effort, she begins life as a postwoman on the Blitz-torn streets of London. And when she rescues a young boy from a bombed-out house and takes him back to the family home in West London, she finds a new sense of purpose. Traumatised from losing his mother and being trapped in the ruins alone, seven-year-old Alfie is rebellious and withdrawn. However, he touches the hearts of the family whose patience and special insight from Rose win his trust. But then a stranger, Johnny Beech, turns up on the doorstep looking for his son, and everything changes.
