About this listen

The third book in a moving and heartwarming World War II saga series. Perfect for listeners of Ellie Dean and Annie Groves and for fans of the Home Fires series.

Dover 1940

As firebombs fall on Dover, Edie Castle's life is thrown into turmoil when the garage where she lives and works is damaged and her beloved boss is arrested.

With no job and nowhere else to go, Edie returns to Castle's Café and her formidable mother, Nellie. Living with her mother is never easy, but tensions reach boiling point when an old friend of Nellie's arrives looking for a place to stay.

Meanwhile, desperate to clear her boss's name, Edie turns to his nephew for help. But when the café is engulfed in scandal, a shocking tragedy brings long-buried memories to the surface, and Edie realises she can't trust anyone—not even her own mother...

I love these series of books. I lived in Dover for 3 years. Living in Army Barracks and I had no idea of the situation in the war in Dover and these books have brought it alive. Amazing I can’t wait until the next book.

Had to keep rewinding, just a few minutes in to the story when I realised the date being read on Edith’s fathers grave MUST be wrong 🤣🤦🏼‍♀️ 1988! It’s the same year my son was born and I know he’s only 34! 🤪..
Amazing that such an obvious potential error got missed when this was being reviewed before release.
Still a great story though and just shows those who spot it are fully absorbed in the story.

Wrong DOB..classic error 😅
