London, 1938. Bookseller Gertie Bingham is facing difficult times, having just lost her beloved husband, Harry, and with a lingering sadness at never having been able to have a child of her own. Struggling to face running the bookshop she and Harry opened together, Gertie is preparing to sell up and move away when she is asked if she would be willing to take in a young Jewish refugee from Germany. Gertie is unsure and when sullen teenager Hedy Fischer arrives, Gertie fears she has nothing left to give the troubled girl.

Story
Whip-smart librarian Peggy Sparks is determined to make sure that her brother Joe returns from the frontline to their London home, which they share with their beloved mother and grandmother. So when she is offered a once-in-a-lifetime job at the heart of the war effort, Peggy jumps at the prospect of making a real contribution to her country. But when she finds herself working under the fanciful socialite Lady Marigold Cecily, Peggy discovers that those around her are more keen on dancing at the Café de Paris than on ending the war.

Story
Eigentlich wollte sich Gertie mit Anfang sechzig zur Ruhe setzen. Aber dann bricht der Krieg aus, und die Welt der Londoner Buchhändlerin wird komplett durcheinandergewirbelt. Vor allem als sie ein jüdisches Flüchtlingsmädchen aus München aufnimmt. Erst die Liebe zur Literatur bringt die beiden Frauen einander näher. Als sie beim nächsten Fliegeralarm in einem Bunker Schutz suchen, liest Hedy einem kleinen verängstigten Jungen etwas vor – eine willkommene Ablenkung für alle. Gertie und Hedy nehmen nun jedes Mal, wenn der Alarm ertönt, ein Buch mit.
