What to expect
The next instalment in the Seaside Girls Series from Tracy Baines - is it all over for the Seaside Girls?
Will the war put a stop to the Seaside Girls?
Cleethorpes, September 1940
It’s all change for the Seaside Girls…
Singer Jessie Delaney has finally got her big break in London’s West End and is determined to make the most of her golden opportunity, even with the start of the Blitz.
Lonely, and lacking the guidance of friends and family, Jessie hopes that seasoned performer Adele Bailey will help her find her feet. But, when fame beckons friendships are tested and loyalties are divided.
Ginny Thompson returns home to Sheffield to care for her sick but abusive father. Will she survive the wrath of her father and the blitz and return to her passion of entertaining the troops on the stage?
Meanwhile, back in Cleethorpes Frances Randolph is busy running the Palace Theatre whilst her husband serves his King and Country wondering if her life in the spotlight is over forever.
Will Jessie make the right choices as she navigates her way to the top – and can Ginny and Frances find their way back to the limelight?
A gritty and heart-warming saga perfect for readers of Elaine Everest, Nancy Revell and Pam Howes.
