As war rages above, she must hide her hard work — and her heart

October, 1940: Loyal twenty-one-year-old Stevie Hope envies her older brother, Spencer, for securing his dream job as an engine driver. Her dream is to be a cook and feed the hungry troops, and after working tirelessly in a mobile canteen and completing a night school course, Stevie is thrilled to be interviewed as an assistant cook for the Railway Executive Committee. But they insist that to take the job, she will need to sign the Official Secrets Act…

Only once she accepts do they reveal the secret location where she would be working – the disused Down Street Underground Station they moved into at the onset of the war. Little does Stevie know that Down Street Station is where Churchill sometimes holds secret meetings with his War Cabinet, and that he and his top aides join him in the executive mess room with the senior REC staff for their meals.

Amongst the daily terrors of war, can hope prevail as Stevie does her best for the war effort? Could there even be a prospect of romance with the man with the twinkling eyes, who stands at Churchill’s side?
