  • "Two sisters in 1930's Glasgow find work, romance, and trouble."
  • ""The death of their father throws Lexa and Cordelia Stewart into both emtional and financial turmoil. Aged nineteen and twenty, they suddenly find themselves in charge of their lives, and with their mother Alice to support. Later, with the failure of their Glasgow greengrocer's shop, they must also find a different way to earn a living. And in 1937 it's still very much a man's world..." -- BOOK JACKET."
  • "For Lexa and Cordelia Stewart the late 1930s bring changes that neither could have dreamed of. For as well as the onslaught of war, the death of their father leaves them ill-equipped to run the family business. Cordelia falls recklessly in love with Joe Given, who is not only married but is looking elsewhere. Meanwhile, Lexa finds brief happiness with William until the war cruelly postpones their wedding. Will the Tarot card message read by her grandmother years ago finally come true? Will a 'cruel misunderstanding' stand in the way of Lexa and her longed-for marriage?"
