A heart-warming and inspiring tale of three incredible women on the home-front during world war two from the author of The Bomb Girls It's 1945 and the country has been turned upside down. For the aristocratic Somervilles this means being pushed unceremoniously into the upstairs floors of their grand home as it is taken over by the armed forces. But for newcomers Ava, Maudie and Bella this is a chance for something more. The girls move into Walsingham Hall, each ready and willing to do their part for the war effort, and soon become firm friends. But Lord Edward Somerville seems like he is hiding something sinister. And although he may be clever he might have met his match in Maudie and the girls . . .
作者簡介
Daisy Styles grew up in Lancashire surrounded by a family and community of strong women. She loved to listen to their stories of life in the cotton mill, in the home, at the pub, on the dance floor, in the local church, or just what happened to them on the bus going into town. It was from these women, particularly her vibrant mother and Irish grandmother, that Daisy learnt the art of story-telling. There was also the landscape of her childhood; wide sweeping empty moors dappled with sunshine, thick with snow, slippery underfoot in the rain, hills that ran as far as the eye could see to the Pennine Way and beyond that to the Lake District. A perfect backdrop for a saga, a space big enough and wild enough to stage a drama about women's lives in a munitions factory during World War 2.
