A short story that packs an emotional punch. A story of chance and impossible connections.
The year is 1943, when petty officer Lily Baines manages to tune into a radio transmission she has been trained to intercept and decode for the navy. Whilst this information is vital to the war effort, there is one revelation that makes this intelligence startling. It is from the future!!!.
However, despite eighty years apart, Lily and Matt must find a way to help each other. Matt with his knowledge of what did happen tries to convince Lily that the war can still be won. Meanwhile the USS Colin Powel comes under attack and begins to sink. As the situation goes from bad to worse the two must do what they can to save the situation in 2023.
Such a sweet and tender story with the most unlikely of friendships forged during the worst of circumstances and decades apart. Sad but uplifting, time travel but with realistic events. Simply beautiful.
