So when she is offered a once-in-a-lifetime job at the heart of the war effort, Peggy jumps at the prospect of making a real contribution to her country.

Writing accounts of her daily life is the only thing keeping Peggy's hopes alive. Then, after she finds her inner-most thoughts accidentally published by he Ministry of Information, Peggy realises she needs Marigold's help to save her job, and to bring her brother home...
