The year is 1940. Fay Abrams is a salesgirl in a Mayfair hat shop. But Fay is no ordinary girl. She sees things before they happen and forbidden by her mother to speak about the visions that have clouded her life since she was a child, she has learnt to stay silent. Now, with the threat of invasion on everyone's mind, with the war coming closer to home, she must speak up. Lives could be saved. In a climate of prejudice and suspicion, a Jewish girl from Willesden, becomes the target of attention. Followed, watched, threatened with imprisonment, suspected of being in league with the enemy, she discovers that she's not the first member of her family to be plagued by visions. From the privileged lives of Mayfair's aristocracy to the neglected tenants of Stepney, from nights sheltering in luxury at the Savoy to nights huddled in an Anderson shelter, Fay's War is a vivid account of life in wartime London. It's a story of courage, class distinction and family secrets.
