Summary

Will an unlikely friendship be enough to save them?

After escaping a train bound for a death camp with a trusty German Shepherd dog, a girl wakes to find that she has no memory of her former life.

Lily is fostered by the kind RAF pilot who found her and his wife, Meg. It is not long before their lives are disrupted once again by the war and, with their home in ruins, they are forced to flee to the country.

In the Somerset countryside, Lily is reunited with Rudy, the heroic German Shepherd. However it soon becomes clear that Rudy is not just her companion, he is protecting her too, and someone wants him out of the way…

A gripping historical saga of friendship and family from bestselling author Lizzie Lane.

Brilliant Listen!

I absolutely loved this book! Listened over 2 days. I was gripped throughout, on tender hooks several times. Loved all the characters, especially Roody the dog. Narration was spot on, read perfectly. I'm going to download another one of her books " War orphans " with the same narrator hoping itll be as good as this one. 5 stars !

Brilliant book!

Yet another fantastic book! The story had me hooked from chapter to chapter. Every character was brought to life by the brilliant narrator Penelope Freeman.
