The Americans have arrived and Marm is not impressed! She’s already got enough to deal with: a Spring Bazaar to arrange, the village hall is falling down around her ears and the churchwarden has lost the vestry keys again! It certainly doesn’t need those Yanks to go barging about the place complaining about the country corners jumping out at them!

Meanwhile, up at the RAF hospital, Matron has her own priorities: “keeping the nurses on their toes, the Lads on the mend and the doctors in their place!”

As for what the Lads were up to through the Library… Matron caught wind of it and was soon on the warpath. “Better to have it out, than packed away and fermenting!”

With a truckload of surplus for the ironmonger, ‘Jeepers’ found himself with a to-boot too far. There were amends to be made and the Post Mistress knew how to silence Sarg.

This is the first book in the Gertie’s Path series and is set in a small Lincolnshire village during World War Two, where a spirited community adapt to wartime ways and the new RAF hospital. With so much to deal with it was no wonder that plenty in the village had shrugged that lanky errand boy off as ‘can’t make him out’, but all too soon they realised they couldn’t afford to waste anything… not even Gertie!
