The next book in the wonderful, bestselling Harpers Emporium series from Rosie Clarke

The Harpers Girls come face to face with the harsh reality of the cruelty of war.

Oxford Street, London 1915

Sally Harper quietly battles to keep Harpers afloat in the difficult days of the war, whilst husband Ben is working all hours for the War Office.

Beth Burrow is fighting concern for her husband Jack, now at sea with the Merchant Navy, and the fear she may never see him again and be blessed with a child.

Driven to exhaustion, Maggie Gibbs, is now working as a nursing assistant on the battlefields in France. With the everyday horrors of the casualties of war to contend with she suffers her own personal tragedy when her fiancé's plane ditches in the sea.

Can the Harpers Girls and their loved ones survive the perils of war and find a path to future happiness?

A heart-warming saga following the lives, loves and losses of the Harpers Girls.
Perfect for fans of Nadine Dorries, Pam Howes and Dilly Court.

The narrator of this book chose to change the accents of main characters Sally, Maggie & Marlene. Having grown accustomed to these characters in previous 2 books I found it off putting and so didn’t finish this book.

Lovely story, but …..

Why did the narrator change after book 2? 🙉 so hard to continue listening. Shame

I really enjoyed the series but.....

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
The Narrator was changed after the first 2 books in this series which isn’t great to do 3 books in. The book and content are great, very enjoyable but since this is an audio book app the narrator is super-central to the storyline. A couple of the characters sound very over-twee and one develops a lisp 3/4 way through the book.

Great story, questionable narration

This narrator does a good job differentiating between so many female characters, however as some of them are so shrill one has to keep changing the volume. When doing the foreign accents she tends to over egg the performance making it difficult to understand what is being said. The story is good and the characters engaging so I will continue with the series.

Some confusing accents

After having enjoying listening to the first two books, narrated by a different person, I was looking forward to listening to the rest of the series. However, the change in narration and perhaps the direction they were given, is making it difficult and this saddens me because the stories are lovely and nicely written. Unfortunately, like others, I can’t say the same about the character accents. In addition it’s been like have a whole new cast and it’s been confusing. That said, I have enjoyed the story thus far so I will continue, but I would suggest retaining a narrator to narrate all the books in a series.
