#1 - The Wartime Newspaper Girls

Jenny didn't want to leave her life in Clapham, but when she unexpectedly loses her job and her mother moves up to Allanby Cross, Jenny has no choice but to go with her. Things soon start to look up for Jenny, though, as she's offered the role of editor for the local newspaper, The Allanby Cross Gazette.

Budding photographer Eleanor longs to work, so when Jenny asks her to help with the photography for the Gazette, it feels like a dream come true.

Alongside Iolanthe, who works for a local guest house and helps with the day-to-day running of the paper, the new friends breathe new life into the once-struggling newspaper. But when things at the Gazette start going wrong, the Wartime Newspaper Girls begin to wonder if they’re dealing with a saboteur.

As the war rages overseas, Jenny, Eleanor and Iolanthe must rely on one another as they work to uncover who’s behind the disruption and save the newspaper before it’s too late?
