Book
1940 - For librarian Delia, the threat of war is finally invading the life she's been building. Her new beau Robert gets called up to service and she returns home to find her lovely London flat destroyed. Still, she has the Silver Town library and all its readers to get her through the hard times. And after spending time volunteering in a convalescent home, she has just the idea on how to bring a spark of joy to their troubled days. But even in her sanctuary, difficulties abound. From a sneaky book thief in their stacks, to fellow librarian Jane's husband becoming injured in action, to their stern local councillor Mrs Montague-Smythe, who still seems to have it in for Delia. Can she ever find light in the darkness?
