What to expect

By Command of The Queen, you are hereby directed to be present at –

There's a lot to get done ahead of the Queen's Coronation, and even more so when your livelihood is at stake.

Lucy Jones is Junior Wardrobe Assistant to the Queen, but dreams of being a singer. Caroline Brimstone loves her role as the Queen's Assistant Dresser, but behind closed doors, she fights for a better life for herself and her daughter. And Miranda Miller, an undercover journalist in the coronation office's planning committee, needs an inside scoop to keep her job – the only thing she has left.

They are all running away from their own demons but in order to succeed, they must shed their shame, trust themselves and reclaim their lives.

As Queen Elizabeth II takes the throne, will these three women be able to take their rightful places in the world?

The Queen's Coronation is an unforgettable tale of female resilience, friendship and having the courage to seize your future.

Critics Review

Quick and delightful . . . Ryan’s subtlety shines in her acknowledgment of the importance of remembering the people who pass through our lives and in her descriptions of how war and conflict can teach empathy and change people for the better
The New York Times Book Review on The Spies of Shilling Lane
A deliciously warm and heartrending tale . . . It’s empowering to see women helping women . . . A lovely reminder that helping others is one of the things that make life so satisfying.
Martha Hall Kelly on The Wedding Dress Sewing Circle
A delight! Jennifer Ryan cooks up a fresh take on the popularity of World War Two fiction and brings the battle into the heart of the wartime home. A charming blend of intriguing characters and a high-stakes cookery competition, served with the perfect amount of pathos and humour
Hazel Gaynor, bestselling author of The Bird in the Bamboo Cage on The Kitchen Front
What a dream of a book! Absolute perfection! Nostalgia, rivalry, friendship and fun – a real treat. Beautifully detailed – you will be right there with a cast of vivid characters, cooking their way to a new life
Veronica Henry on The Kitchen Front
Delightful . . . it manages to be sad and funny, exciting and heartwarming, all at the same time. Quite an achievement
Barbara Erskine on The Chilbury Ladies’ Choir
The writing glows with emotional intelligence. This atmospheric debut, based on the author’s own family history, had me sniffing copiously
Daily Mail on The Chilbury Ladies’ Choir
