Maybe by Christmas, the war will be over and we’ll be back with Mum and Dad . . .
London, 1940: the world is at war and 10-year-old twins Harry and Rosie are evacuated to live with their mysterious great uncle on the stormy Lancashire coast. Missing home, they throw themselves into the local dance show – determined to do their bit and maybe even dance at the famous Blackpool Winter Gardens.
But when Harry sees strange lights out on the rocks one night, he and Rosie realize their new home is hiding some huge secrets. Racing to uncover the truth, the twins learn that bravery comes in many forms and even in the worst of times, the show must go on . . .
‘An exciting adventure with all the speed and style of Anton’s dancing’ - Jacqueline Wilson
