Return to the world of Skylarks' War in this heartbreaking follow up - a WWII story that spans generations and crosses the divides of war.

From the Costa Award-winning author Hilary McKay comes a moving WWII story of family and friendship on opposite sides of a devastating conflict. The Swallows' Flight is the stunning companion novel to The Skylarks' War. Erik and Hans are German boys.

Ruby and Kate are English girls. They grow up in worlds that would never meet until war tumbles their lives together. Then one September afternoon there are choices to be made.

How is courage lost, and found? Who is really the enemy? And what does friendship truly mean, in the middle of a war? Meanwhile, Rupert and Clarry work secretly for peace - and a brighter future for them all . .
