Is it possible for a ten-year-old girl to fall in love? Jenny Mercer thought so. Evacuated to Lincolnshire from the East End of London at the outbreak of war she is frightened of the wide open spaces & the huge skies. At first she is treated badly by the two spinsters with whom she is billeted. But the kindly Thornton family soon makes her feel welcome. & no one more so than Georgie the handsome RAF fighter pilot who is caught up in the battle for Britain's survival. When Georgie is posted missing presumed killed Jenny is devastated & there is more heartbreak when her mother demands that she return home to the dangerous city streets now under almost daily attack from enemy bombers. Dot never hides the fact that her daughter's birth was a mistake & kindness & care towards Jenny comes not from her mother but from their neighbours across the street the Hutton family. The only other person to show concern for Jenny is strangely Dot's 'fancy man' Arthur Osborne who moves into the terraced house. But is Arthur only interested in the girl because she can be useful to him? No one will suspect a ten-year-old of being involved with the Black Market. When the law comes a little too close for Arthur's comfort the family flees in the night under the protection of the blackout heading north out of the city. But to Jenny's disappointment it is not back to Lincolnshire but into the hills & dales of Derbyshire where they are always on the move always on the run. There Jenny is caught up in a life of deception obliged to do whatever her mother & Arthur demand of her when all she really wants is to go back to Lincolnshire. For Jenny has never given up hope that one day Georgie will come back... ...

Jeremy & Amy

Jeremy Keeling first met Amy an orang-utan abandoned by his mother when he was looking after the private menagerie of music impresario Gordon Mills. A friendship was forged that would become the defining relationship of both their lives. One day when Jeremy was driving along with one-year-old Amy sitting beside him in the passenger seat he fell asleep at the wheel and caused a horrific car crash. The first policeman on the scene crawled into the wreckage where he was staggered to see a hairy non-human hand cradling Jeremys head amid the glass and twisted metal: having been saved by Jeremy Amy now refused to let him go. For Jeremy it was to be a long convalescence but he was able to repay his debt to Amy when he joined forces with Jim Cronin a tough-talking primate-lover from the Bronx who
shared his vision of creating a sanctuary for abused and abandoned monkeys. Pooling their knowledge passion and meagre resources the two men took on a derelict pig farm in Dorset and over the next twenty years slowly transformed it into a 65-acre cage-less sanctuary for beleaguered primates rescued from poachers photographers and scientists on daring raids. Monkey World is now internationally famous and attracts some 800 000 visitors a year.
