"It's hard to accept that this is the end of the Emmy Lake series, but if there has to be an end, let it be this one: Dear Miss Lake. Sheer joy!" --Bonnie Garmus, author of Lessons in Chemistry Plucky wartime advice columnist Emmy Lake discovers that sometimes it takes losing everything to find what we need most in this heartwarming finale to a quartet of uplifting historical fiction novels set in World War II London. London, July 1944. After nearly five years of war, the readers of
Woman's Friend magazine are relying on Emmy Lake and her team more than ever. With the city under attack during the Blitz, the magazine staff decamps to the countryside for the summer. Determined to support women on the home front, Emmy and friends work tirelessly to inspire resilience in the midst of wartime struggle.
With her army officer husband Charles posted close to home, and best friend Bunty by her side, Emmy throws herself into rural life, juggling children, magazine assignments, and preparations for a very important wedding. Then a call comes that may finally give her the chance to fulfill her long-held dream of becoming a war correspondent.
But when disaster strikes, Emmy must lean on her friends, her community, and her readers more than ever. Brimming with courage and compassion, a lovable cast of characters, and winning wartime details,
Dear Miss Lake is an enormously uplifting testament to the power of friendship and hope.
