Summary: During World War II, ten-year-old Lizzie is evacuated from bomb-blitzed Hull to a remote Yorkshire valley, where she is desperately homesick. Told from her point of view and that of Elijah, a local Romany boy, the story follows what happens when Lizzie discovers an abandoned baby. Can she find the baby's parents, and can her dangerous friendship with Elijah survive a world clouded by prejudice and fear?
