More Description1940. German bombers target Coventry nightly, but pregnant young mother Lizza King is reluctant to leave the city and her husband Roland. Only after her daughter is killed in a raid does Lizza leave for south Durham. While Priorton is safer from enemy attack, it is not without drama. Lizza's sister is still recovering from being raped.
