Despre Daughters of Liverpool carte
Evocative and heartrending saga of Liverpool during World War Two, from the author of AS TIME GOES BY – rising star Annie Groves
Katie’s full of trepidation as she arrives in Liverpool. It’s her first posting and her work will be so secret that she can’t even speak about it to the family she’s billeted with. She makes it clear that she’s here to do her bit for the war effort, not to flirt with the many servicemen based at the nearby barracks.
Which is just fine with Luke, son of the household and battle-scarred veteran of Dunkirk. He’s had his heart broken already by a flighty nurse. His mother can’t help worry about him - but she’s got more than enough on her plate with her youngest children, the teenage twins, who don’t see why a war should stop them having fun and achieving their ambition to go on the stage. Then the bombs begin to rain in Liverpool in earnest and everyone, from oldest to youngest, must realise what matters most in life.

Annie Groves
Annie Groves was originally created by the much-loved writer Penny Halsall, who died in 2011. The stories drew on her own family’s history, picked up from listening to her grandmother’s stories when she was a child. Linda Finlay is the author of many historical novels, and she has always loved crafting stories about brave women who have broken the mould. She is delighted to continue the Annie Groves legacy and to create new stories to inspire the next generation of heroines.
