Sobre este título
It’s 1944. Twelve-year-old Grace Devine lives at Blacksod Lighthouse and weather station in County Mayo with her parents and little brother. When a German plane crashes nearby, she and her best friend Sibby risk their lives to save the young pilot. Grace’s family take him in, but their neighbours are horrified at having an ‘enemy’ in their midst.
Meanwhile, the Met Office in England suddenly asks Blacksod to send them weather reports every hour. But why? As the wind and rain howl outside, Grace begins to understand that something important is happening, something to do with the war – and she is right in the eye of the storm.

'I loved this story of two best friends Grace and Sibby caught up in all the excitement and tensions of World War Two ... Sarah Webb has not only brilliantly captured life during the Emergency, but the dynamics of friendship between two very different girls.' (Marita Conlon-McKenna, award winning author of Under the Hawthorn Tree)
'The dynamic between Grace and her best friend Sibby is easily the most entertaining aspect of this novel, with the author highlighting the difficulty of overcoming jealousy, stubbornness and the ascendence into the trying teenage years through the many misunderstandings that Grace and Sibby have. This novel is short but it packs a punch.' (Children's Books Ireland)
'Sarah Webb, who threads archived weather reports of the time into her fictional story, offers young readers insights into a period of 20th century Irish history often overshadowed by the First World War and the country’s independence struggle …' (Irish Examiner)
