Kathleen Hewitt

Kathleen Hewitt was a British novelist and journalist active in the mid-twentieth century. Her mystery novel Plenty Under the Counter, set in wartime London, captures the atmosphere of the home front with wit and sharp observation. Originally published during World War II, it has been reissued for modern readers and listeners as an audiobook and book. Hewitt's portrayal of rationing, the black market and London's wartime spirit gives a vivid snapshot of a city under siege.
