A breathtaking novel set during the days of World War Two, in Boston, which honours the courage of three ordinary young women who are swept up in extraordinary true events.

'A story about friendship, resilience and the bond three women form in the face of fear. Rich in historical detail and full of heart' Laura Anthony

Out of the ashes, their courage soared...

November 1942. Boston's most popular nightspot, the glamorous Cocoanut Grove, is bursting with the young and beautiful. Movie stars mingle with sailors home on leave and the dance floor shakes. All it will take is a single spark to burn it all down...

In the arms of her sweetheart, Alice hopes he won't guess at the secret she is carrying. Waiting outside to catch a celebrity, Inez is determined to get her big break as a journalist at the Globe. At the hospital nearby, Nina prepares for a quiet night on the ward, anxious about balancing her nursing career with a family.

When a fire erupts in the Cocoanut Grove, the lives of these three ordinary women are thrown into chaos. As each fights for survival and for the ones they love, they discover a strength within themselves and are set on a path they never would have imagined...
