What to expect
Cork, 1939. Kitty Flinn is only seventeen when she is forced to give up her new-born in a baby and mother home. Heartbroken and desperate for a fresh start she leaves Ireland behind for London, vowing to never look back.
Years go by and Kitty has a new life in England but when her communist brother Anthony is injured during the war and in hiding from the authorities, she has no choice but to return home. Food and medicine are hard to come by so when she lands a nursing job at a hospital in Naas it seems the answer to all their problems. But that is only until her ability to read German is noticed by an ambitious Irish official, Sam Daley...
He won't stop at anything to use her translator skills to gather intel from German prisoners, even dig into her past. Kitty doesn't want to play any part in the war, especially when she finds out it could put Anthony's life at risk. But when Sam offers her a one-time chance of finding her baby in exchange for her help, will she choose her past or her future?
Inspired by real life events Kitty's War is new sweeping historical novel by the bestselling author of Dublin's Girl, Eimear Lawlor.
