Daughters of Liverpool

Evocative and heartrending saga of Liverpool during World War Two, from the author of AS TIME GOES BY – rising star Annie Groves Katie’s full of trepidation as she arrives in Liverpool. It’s her first posting and her work will be so secret that she can’t even speak about it to the family she’s billeted with. She makes it clear that she’s here to do her bit for the war effort, not to flirt with the many servicemen based at the nearby barracks. Which is just fine with Luke, son of the household and battle-scarred veteran of Dunkirk. He’s had his heart broken already by a flighty nurse. His mother can’t help worry about him - but she’s got more than enough on her plate with her youngest children, the teenage twins, who don’t see why a war should stop them having fun and achieving their ambition to go on the stage. Then the bombs begin to rain in Liverpool in earnest and everyone, from oldest to youngest, must realise what matters most in life. Daughters of Liverpool is a historical saga by bestselling author Annie Groves that skillfully intertwines military and medical themes. This bestselling book is a testament to Groves ability to create compelling fiction that resonates with readers. For fans of Katie Flynn (White Christmas), Daisy Styles (The Wartime Midwives), Elaine Everest (The Teashop Girls at War), Rosie Goodwin (The Winter Promise), and Rosie Hendry (The Mother's Day Victory).
