About this listen

A story from Night in the Front Line, a collection of Second World War short stories. In 'Night in the Front Line', the title story of this collection, Molly Lefebure vividly captures the different reactions of one small community to the Blitz.

When Mrs Brown is found sheltering under her stairs during a raid, she is quickly rushed to the safety of the local school. There, amidst the chaos and panic, she meets an array of neighbours in varying states of distress.
