Acclaimes actress Millie Bobby Brown<\/a> is turning to the literary world for her next project. The Stranger Things<\/strong><\/em> star is working with William Morrow, an imprint of HarperCollins, on her debut novel, Nineteen Steps<\/strong>, <\/em>according to The Hollywood Reporter<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The book , which is scheduled to be released on September 12, is inspired by the actress’s own family history. Her grandmother, Ruth, survived the Bethnal Green tube disaster.<\/p>\n

\u201cInspired by my Nanny Ruth, this book is very personal and close to my heart. I grew up listening to stories about her time living through the war. I\u2019m honored to keep her story alive,” the Enola<\/strong> Holmes<\/strong>\u00a0<\/em>star said about Nineteen Steps<\/strong><\/em> in a statement.<\/p>\n

The historical novel is being.described as an epic story of love, loss and secrets. It will center on 18-year-old Nellie Morris, who lives with her family in Bethnal Green during World War II.<\/p>\n

After a chance encounter with an American airman stationed nearby, Nellie becomes enchanted with the idea of a broader world. Just when she begins to embrace an exciting new life with Ray, a terrible incident occurs during an air raid one evening, and the consequences are catastrophic.<\/p>\n

As the truth about that night is revealed, Nellie’s world is torn apart. When it seems all hope is lost, she finds that, against all odds, love and happiness can triumph.<\/p>\n

William Morrow acquired US and Canadian rights to publish the novel. The publisher’s executive editor, Liz Stein, negotiated the deal with Alyssa Reuben at William Morris Endeavor.<\/p>\n

“Nineteen Steps<\/strong>\u00a0<\/em>is a tender, inspiring story about female resilience and the human spirit,” Stein said. “Both heart-warming and heart-breaking, it\u2019s a novel that portrays the strength and courage we find in family, friendship and community. I was incredibly moved by the haunting, true tragedy at the core of the novel and enchanted by the unforgettable portrait of love in the time of war.”<\/p>\n
