Description

With Nazis bombing London every night, it's time for thirteen-year-old Ken to escape. He suspects his stepmother is glad to see him go, but his dad says he's one of the lucky ones - one of ninety boys and girls to ship out aboard the SS City of Benares to safety in Canada. Life aboard the luxury ship is grand - nine-course meals, new friends and a life far from the bombs, rations and his stepmum's glare. And after five days at sea, the ship's officers announce that they're out of danger. They're wrong.
