This story is set during the Civil war in Washington, Union territory. With men gone to fight, women went to work at jobs to support them. In this case, at an armory, making ammunition. It's interesting to learn how bullets were made, and the process. Clara is a young girl who works in the armory and is befriended by another girl and her brother. Clara and her mother live at a nearby boardinghouse. Her father was killed in battle, her brother hasn't been heard from. I've read other stories of war time; this has an interesting perspective. Christian values are a part of Clara and Joseph's lives, and their strength is built upon it. People you would be glad to call friends. Well told and twisting story, unfolding historical events as though you're there
