There are fresh challenges and new beginnings on the horizon for the girls at Woolworths . . .

When the Bexleyheath branch of F. W. Woolworths is bombed, Annie must help save her fellow staff members. Thankfully uninjured, she is moved to the Erith store, where she soon finds her feet. But a tragedy close to home is another stark reminder that life can turn on a sixpence.

When Annie meets Dean, an American soldier who promises to care for her and her family, she has more than just the end of the war to celebrate. With wedding bells and a new life in America beckoning, great change lies ahead.

Suitcase in tow, Annie must remember one thing: if she follows her heart, it will always lead her in the right direction.
