When war changes the world, her courage stands strong
Rosie Gallagher has always dreamed of being a conductress on Edinburgh's trams, and when WW2 calls the men away, she finally gets her chance. Rosie finds friendship among her fellow clippies as they settle into their new jobs, even as they are viewed with suspicion for taking on men's jobs.
But when a bomb strikes her tram, Rosie risks her life to save a trapped mother and baby, earning the admiration of kind-hearted fireman Andy. The two grow closer, and when Rosie is asked to start driving the trams, she is thrilled at how her life is changing.
But danger still stalks the streets, and when Rosie uncovers a sinister black-market operation, she must find the courage to do what's right.
