'A master storyteller at his best' Sunday Times

It's 1943. Lily lives in a seaside village and her life is scarcely touched by the war. Until one day when the villagers are all told to move out of their homes.

Soon, the whole area is out of bounds, as the allied forces prepare to invade France. But Tips, Lily's cat, has other ideas - and returns to the forbidden area. Lily decides to enter the danger zone to look for Tips herself . . .
