The Blacksmith's Girl

Set against the backdrop of a country at war, the uplifting tale of an unusual friendship between two very different women. Cornwall 1916. Verity Tregorran, one of the local blacksmith´s nine daughters, is finding it hard to hide her long-term feelings for Ned Chegwidden, the boy next door, now serving in the trenches. For if her parents knew of Verity´s attachment to someone outside the family´s strict Christian sect, they would be horrified.< Loitering on the coastal path one evening, Verity witnesses something suspicious on the cliffs which causes her to fear the involvement of German spies. There´s only one person she can turn to: Effie Dawes, wife of the local police constаble, now fighting overseas. Effie meanwhile has a tragedy of her own to face, while scandal will rock Verity´s family - but the two unlikely friends remain determined in their efforts to discover what really happened on the cliffs.
