A gripping first-hand account of life back home during
World War Two.
Britain has been fighting the Second World War for five
years and, with his father away serving in the navy, Jimmy feels
responsible for looking after his mother and sister. But when he
loses track of time at the cinema, Jimmy finds himself in real trouble.
It's dark and the sirens are blaring - it's a bombing
raid! Forced to spend the night in a shelter, when he finally
gets home, there's no home to go to. The house has been bombed out
and his mother and sister are nowhere to be found.
How will Jimmy survive alone on the dangerous streets of London?
And will he ever find his family?
