Signed with an X is about a Jewish baby, born in England, into a world on the verge of all-out war. Elsie, the young mother, describes her feelings as she listens to the BBC. Joe, the father, describes seeing Germany preparing for war, while England dithers between appeasement and denial.

The Jewish community in England is aware of what their fate would be should England fall to the Nazis. The likelihood of invasion seems obvious to most, especially to the Jews. While on holiday on the coast of England, Elsie thinks she hears guns firing. The next day, she reads in the Daily Express that she is right. The phone rings. England is at war. The family's lives are launched into survival mode.
