It’s 1947 and London’s East End is still a bombed-out landscape.

The one silver lining is her best friend, the tearaway Billy Baggins, also a resident of the home, but Billy seems intent on falling foul of Sister Beatrice’s strict regime.New arrival on the staff, Angela, admires Sister Beatrice, but can see that the children need love and kindness as well as a strong hand. When an unwelcome face from Billy’s past arrives on the scene, things are brought to a head. Can the two women work together to keep Billy on the straight and narrow – or is it too late?

2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. A very good read about times past. By Anthea R. Close This is a gritty story of life in a children's home in the east end of London shortly after World War Two. The tale of one of the girls in the home is prevalent, her name is Mary Ellen and also her friend Billy; quite a few occupants of the home also figure. There were many trials and tribulations suffered during life in this children's home. I was very engrossed in the story and it held my interest right until the last page, I couldn't put this book down and have ordered the second one in the series which comes out in March. I hope this will not be the last.

Mary Ellen's mother get's very sick and goes into a hospital where she ends up dying. Mary Ellen's sister can't take care of her because she is studying to be nurse and is not living home. So Mary Ellen ends up in a Orphanage home. She has a hard time adjusting. The children are fed pretty well there. Sister Beatrice the Reverent Mother can be very strict. Billy who is Mary Ellen's friend ends up in Sister Beatrice's office a number of times where he is punished and hit with a cane. Angela comes to the home to see how she can make some changes on how it is run and make some improvements. She has a soft spot for the children and tells Sr. Beatrice that she should not be hitting children when they misbehave. Sister finds fault with Billy a lot. I just read this book recently and hated for it to end. I just seen that book #2 is out. I am going to order it now. Hope it is as good as this one.
