Sisters Mary and Daisy Fissleborough, 14 and 12, are among a tide of evacuees. They clamber aboard a heaving third-class train at Paddington Station. Their over-dressed mother's strained, fingertip waves fade behind the grimy window. Gas mask boxes clatter overhead as frightened children jostle for space.
The engine whistle blows, and the ten-carriage train pulls away, heaving everyone toward the West Country, into a world of secrets, dangers, and unexpected friendships.
As the train rushed away, the sisters and their fellow evacuees embarked on a journey that would change their lives forever. From the bustling streets of London to the quiet countryside, they will face unimaginable challenges and form unbreakable bonds.
Safe in the Country is a gripping, character-driven tale of wartime evacuation. Harrowing yet heartwarming. Follow Mary, Daisy, and their companions as they navigate a countryside that proves far less peaceful than promised during one of the most tumultuous times in British history.
