About this listen

The war is only into its second year, but already it has claimed one victim from the Adams family. Emily, Boots's cherished wife, has died in an air-raid, and the whole family mourns her. But for Polly Simms the prospect of a new life dawns, while the members of the younger generation who are in uniform, and doing their bit for king and country, have their own problems to contend with. Tim has been posted to Scotland, to train as a commando, and has met the lovely young officer Felicity; Eloise, now a sergeant in the ATS, is enjoying her new job as driver to the formidable Major Lucas. And has Rosie, now commissioned, lost her heart at last?

The Blitz all but destroys the factory in Shoreditch, but Sammy and Tommy Adams manage to find some alternative accommodation. And love is in the air - for young and old alike - as the Adams family refuse to let Hitler get the better of them.

Great listening as usual. Captivatingly narrated as usual.
I am now on Book 15 of this enthralling & wonderful series. The characters are brought to life by the amazing Annie Aldington & I will be sad when the series comes to an end.

Very enjoyable

I have been listening to all of these books and think they are a very good listening, the oratory brilliant as well, the only thing I find annoying is the next book is not free
