An aspirational story of friendship, fortitude and the joy of Christmas . . .
As the Autumn of 1941 dawns, and female conscription looms, three women arrive at the Bell Works Factory in Hucknall to work on the Spitfire production line. Lily, Edna and Jeannie. . .
Lily soon realises her real dream is to pilot the planes; Edna longs to be reunited with her evacuee daughter while facing a much bigger problem; and Jeannie fears the worst after weeks of no news from her fiancé.
Despite all the heartache, with a bit of Christmas cheer and 'can do' attitude, The Engine Girls will pull together and do all they can to ensure Britain's safe for the New Year!

Daisy Styles grew up in Lancashire, surrounded by a family and community of strong women whose tales she loved to listen to. It was from these women, particularly her vibrant mother and Irish grandmother, that Daisy learned the art of storytelling. There was also the landscape of her childhood - wide, sweeping, empty moors and hills that ran as far as the eye could see - which was a perfect backdrop for a saga, a space big enough and wild enough to stage a drama, one about women's lives during the Second World War.
