The Girls of the Fifties, (Paperback)

Stacey and Leeanne live in a 1950s environment where everything is perfect, almost boring. The mothers dust and clean every day, dinner is always at five and shopping is done only when wearing white gloves.

All the girls are told to get home early before dinner and there is no talking to strangers. Does that include Mr. Felix Wolk, the middle-aged man who lives behind them and is always watching them from behind a bush?

The day Stacey chanced to venture into his yard to pet his cat, Leeanne almost fainted at the gate. Then the day came when Felix had blackouts about his past life, where the jail cell door bounced open and he was now an escapee. The Germans did not see him enter the forest. Should Stacey and Leeanne befriend him or ignore the fact he had no friends or family? The only connection between all three was the cat. Once Felix noticed the girls would visit him when he had the cat. It was only then that everything changed.
