It's 1940, and London is in the grip of Hitler's Blitz. For fifteen-year-old runaways Bill and Judie, wartime London is a playground, a world free from interfering parents and responsibilities. But although ducking Nazi missiles and camping in bomber-out houses seems almost fun for a while, the reality of living through a war quickly begins to set in. Winter is coming, and Bill and Julie will discover that playing at being grown-ups can be a very dangerous game indeed.. A gritty and evocative wartime story.
