About this listen

A BRAND NEW gripping, heart-stirring wartime saga series of friendship, love and courage against the odds

From the bestselling author of The Clarks Factory Girls!

The perfect listen for fans of Rosie Clarke, Pam Howes and Lizzie Lane!

Can their home-front resistance see them through the darkest days?

When war breaks out, Rose Flaherty is eager to do her bit. Swapping city life in Birmingham for the fields of Somerset, she joins the Land Army to help keep Britain fed. But life on the farm is tough, the work backbreaking – and the farmer’s son, Jimmy, isn’t exactly welcoming.

An accident in the orchard brings Rose into the path of nurse Daisy and ATS clerk Elsie, and soon the three girls form an unbreakable bond. But even their quiet corner of the countryside can’t escape the shadow of war.

When Rose uncovers suspicious behaviour and whispers of a secret resistance network, she finds herself pulled into a world of coded messages, hidden identities – and very real danger.

As enemy forces close in, can the girls’ friendship and fierce spirit help protect those they love… and win a battle no one knows they’re fighting?

BOOK ONE in a beautiful new WW2 series set in Somerset from bestselling author May Ellis

I thoroughly enjoyed May Ellis's Clarks Factory Girls series and this book follows the next generation, with the odd reference to their series. Set in WWII in and around Street, Somerset it follows three girls from vastly different backgrounds as they cope with life in wartime. I really enjoyed their story and can't wait for the next installment.

Great insight to women in WWII
