About this listen

The brand new wartime saga from the much-loved author of The Tilbury Poppies. Perfect for fans of Annie Murray and Donna Douglas.

Essex, 1918.

Aggie has tasted freedom working at the local munitions factory. But the Great War is coming to an end, and the men are coming home. Aggie can't bear the idea of going back into service. She wants more from her life - and becoming a Copperette - a member of the Women's Police Service - might help her move up in the world.  

Mim just wants to do her bit for her country. She's prepared to work hard to help her fellow women and keep up morale. She even takes Aggie in to her house to help with her training.   

Mim and Aggie face shocking loss even in the last days of the war. But will they find a way to work together?

I love the voice of Annie Aldington she is so suited for these war time books, Sue Wilsher must do a lot of research I was surprised that it was the suffegettes that started the police women off. It certainly was a man's world with all the hostility from them, we certainly have a lot to thank them for.

A lovely book
