recounts the experience of a would-be emigrant from Liverpool in 1912—her grandfather.
Available on Amazon for US and UK readers.
Exall turns her fascination for World War II history to a story about a fourteen-year-old evacuee from London. Her first attempt at YA fiction, this novel will confirm Exall's switch from mystery to history.
Inspired by a true story of heroism, the narrative traces the lives of two daughters who lose their mothers in the chaos of World War II Europe. Exall has been struggling to complete this novel for a decade.
