A Home Front story that focuses on the less noble side of the Blitz. It's full of black marketeers, petty theft and casual dishonesty but it's also an excellent character study of a misfit orphan and the struggling single mother who takes him in. They are two people you'd probably try to avoid in real life, but Evans gives them warmth and humanity.
