What to expect
The final heartbreaking instalment of The Guernsey Girls wartime trilogy by Mary Wood, bestselling author of The Orphanage Girls series.
Their dreams are worth fighting for . . .
Winter, 1941. Olivia’s life in Guernsey is uprooted by the Nazi occupation. Forced to flee in the dead of night, she escapes to London’s East End. As she steps foot in Bethnal Green, Olivia’s former life is there to greet her, and she’s ordered to spy for the British. To find her son’s father, she agrees to undertake this dangerous mission. Will she make it home to hold her little boy again?
Meanwhile, Annie’s husband is missing in action, and with each passing day, hope of him returning fades. It’s left for Annie to carry on – there are mouths to feed, and more with each nightly bombing campaign. Will she have to give up on true love?
The Guernsey Girls may be separated, but their friendship remains strong. Through tragedy and strife, can they hold on to dreams of peace?
