    About this ebook

    Amanda has fought hard to keep her sanity, what she is experiencing is unbelievable. She is caught in a time loop from which she can’t escape. Somehow, she has traveled back to a time when the Second World War is still raging; food is short and on ration. Morale in the tiny hamlet of Nowhere, however, is high the; thought of losing the war has never occurred to anyone. Amanda must get back to normality, and the only way she can see to do this is to turn into a low-life criminal, something she does with reluctance.
