🕯️ Discover Rosie Clarke's next gritty instalment of her bestselling Blackberry Farm family saga series...❤️ Perfect for fans of Lizzie Lane, Fenella J Miller and Patricia McBride💔
Nothing is ever easy on Blackberry Farm!
Cambridgeshire – 1944
Pam Talbot dedicates her life to keeping those who live and work at Blackberry Farm fed, safe and sound as Artie holds the fort whilst brothers Tom and John are away on national service.
Still reeling from the death of her beloved husband Arthur, Pam makes a rash decision in Arties’s favour which backfires causing him to neglect his duty on the Farm. Now Artie is struggling to run two farms and to add to his woes a new land girl sets her sights on him and won’t take no for an answer.
John is transferred to convalesce in Sussex but is struggling to come to terms with his life changing injuries and new life. Can Sister Jane help him find peace and see a brighter future?
Tom, still on active duty, is ordered undercover in his army unit to discover a traitor. Tom’s life hangs in the balance if his secret mission is exposed. Can Tom find the traitor and be granted the honourable discharge he so craves?
The Talbot’s are never far from trouble and tragedy – maybe their luck is about to change – or maybe not...
Have you tried Rosie Clarke’s Harpers Emporium, Dressmakers Alley or Mulberry Lane series – you’ll just love them!

'In totally in love with all the characters in BlackBerry farm, I can't wait for the third instalment, hope it's not too long to wait, I love the way you describe your characters. Thank you' - Reader Review
'Again Rosie Clarke has written another fabulous addition to this superb series. As like the previous books I came completely absorbed in the characters and the story from the first page. This is one of my absolute favourite war time saga series. It can be read as a standalone but I highly recommend reading the other two books in this delightful series. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️' - Reader Review
