Jessie's twin, Hannah, has been recruited to help at Bletchley Park and, immersed in her work decoding German messages, has no idea of Jessie's desperation.But things are about to get worse. When Tom does a runner and goes AWOL, Jessie will be left in a dire situation . . . A heartbreaking wartime saga from Sally Worboyes, author of Down Stepney Way and At the Mile End Gate.
