Isobel's Story (Swallowcliffe Hall Book 3)

In the final part of the Swallowcliffe Hall trilogy, Isobel comes to the shell of this once-beautiful house with her gas mask in 1939, to stay with her grandmother Polly. Talk of war is on everyone's lips and it's an anxious time - especially for Andreas, a boy who has escaped from Germany on the Kindertransporte: the evacuation of thousands of Jewish children to safety in Britain. Can Izzie help his family find sanctuary at the Hall too? She is determined to try, although the house has fallen on hard times and its very existence is threatened. In the process, she uncovers a family secret that has remained hidden for years, and discovers courage in the face of danger and prejudice she never knew she had.

'"What happens when these refugees grow up?" asked the man from London in his reasonable voice. "They might be innocent little children now but they won't stay that way for ever."
"When it's safe, they'll go home to their families." I had to make one last appeal. "We might not be able to stop the war but this is one good thing that at least we can do. I know it's what my grandmother would have wanted, and no one could have loved Swallowcliffe more than she did."'
