Publisher's Synopsis
It is 1939. War threatens Europe. But the hostilities that occupy the attention of Lucia and Georgie are with Elizabeth Mapp-Flint. Faced with Elizabeth's elevation to the head of Tilling Red Cross, it seems that Lucia's domination of the little Sussex town is under serious threat. But setbacks are only temporary inconveniences for our dauntless heroine, who pulls off a coup that leaves the whole town gasping with amazement.
