Strangers in Time by David Baldacci is set in London during the Blitz of 1944 and follows three unlikely companions thrown together by war. Thirteen-year-old Charlie Matters, an East End orphan forced into petty theft to survive, meets 15‑year‑old Molly Wakefield, recently back from evacuation to the countryside only to find her family missing. They encounter Ignatius Oliver, a grieving widowed bookseller whose shop becomes their refuge. Amid bombings and scarcity, the trio forms a fragile found‑family, bonded by shared trauma and hope.

As secrets unravel—from hidden pasts to covert wartime work and the mystery of Molly’s absent parents—each character must confront loss, guilt, and moral dilemmas. David Baldacci weaves together historical detail and emotional depth, exploring how ordinary people find strength, trust, and connection in devastating circumstances. Strangers in Time is a poignant testament to resilience and the power of chosen kinship during humanity’s darkest hours¹.
