This is the story of three orphaned children, one girl and two boys, growing up in Liverpool before the First World War. The book explores what they do with their lives - lives which are curtailed dramatically by the outbreak of the Great War. Audrey Howard also wrote "The Skylark's Song", "Ambitions", "The Morning Tide" and "The Juniper Bush".
