In this “carefully considered, subtle and observant” wartime saga, a young English woman travels to Spain to help in the war effort and finds romance(The Sunday Times).
In the powerful sequel to The Girl Now Leaving, Betty Burton takes her heroine into the Spanish Civil War.
Poverty and factory work have filled Lu Wilmott with a determination to make something of herself. The call to Spain is irresistible: she can live up to her ideals and finally be the woman she’s always wanted to be.
Signing up as a driver, Lu leaves her past and becomes “Eve”.
One of the few women in charge of heavy vehicles, faced with constant danger, she falls for Spain. But here Eve encounters an old love. Can she find room in her stretched new life for romance?
Amidst death and disease, fear and chaos, with food running low, we find a formidable woman is formed from the spirited, naive girl who left Portsmouth . . .
“It is encouraging when someone like Betty Burton manages against the odds to become a roaring success.” —The Guardian
