Summary:
In the spring of 1939, with the Second World War looming, two determined twenty-four-year-olds, Heather Jenner and Mary Oliver, decided to open a marriage bureau. Drawing on the extensive archives, Penrose Halson - who, years later, found herself the proprietor of the bureau - tells their heart-warming story, and those of their clients.
