Blitz Kid
London 1940. Young schoolgirl Rachel is alone and adrift in a stricken city as the Blitz reaches its most deadly stage and thousands die in nightly air raids. Her father is under arrest as a suspected spy, her mother seriously ill in hospital. As bombers pound the city each night, she struggles to survive in the blackout alongside London’s criminals and to unearth the real traitors. A young man offers her friendship and support. Can she trust him, or is he just an opportunistic looter viewing her as another victim of war to exploit? And who is the sinister man in green tweed who follows them through the bombed-out buildings, accompanied by his vicious dog? Young adult/12-plus. Published in British English.
