'I'm not working on a factory floor or digging for victory, but in my own small way I do what I can for those I love.' It's 1943 and Peggy Reilly is at her best when the troubles of war come knocking at the door of Beach View Boarding House - especially when it concerns her younger sister, Doreen. Doreen is divorced from Eddie, but his letters have taken on a more threatening tone of late.
Ellie Dean lives in Eastbourne, which has been her home for many years and where she raised her three children. She is also the author of There'll be Blue Skies, Far from Home and Keep Smiling Through.
