Summary
Book three in the heartwarming wartime saga in the Home Fires series, perfect for fans of Rosie Clarke and Annie Groves.
In the midst of World War II, the members of one village WI fight harder than ever to help the war effort.
But behind closed doors, each is fighting a more personal battle.
Pat Simms is reeling from her own role in her abusive husband's death, and the new freedom before her is daunting. Sarah Collingborne is struggling with the absence of her husband, who is stranded in a POW camp abroad, and trying her best to fill his treasured place in the village.
Meanwhile, Teresa Lucas is anxious about her future as a parent, and her friend Alison Scotlock is on the verge of starting a new relationship. And Miriam Brindsley's good luck might be about to change.
Grieving for men already lost and anxious for those still away fighting, the women of Great Paxford must rely on each other. Amidst the complexities of broken relationships, loss and friendship, this group of very different women must work together to find a way through.

Very satisfactory depiction of a village community during Second World war.
Watched the ITV series and just had to find out how everyone lives worked out. I was not disappointed.

Fantastically narrated by Fenella Woolgar
I absolutely LOVED listening to this book. I have watched the tv series Home Fires 1 & 2 and this is the 3rd book which continues from series 2. Fenella Woolgar is a FANTASTIC story teller and even spoke just like the characters. As she spoke I could see them talking with each other. I listened I. The kitchen, before bed and in the car! 5* to the narration, something which isn’t an easy thing to master. I shall look out for more books read by her. Now to the story of what would have been series 3. I would love to see this made as a series, but it seems it isn’t going to happen. It was a really good storyline, kept me engaged and wanting to know more. Characters were true to the era and there was plenty of intrigue and drama, some sad bits and some happy bits. I don’t want to give anything g away but this book is WELL WORTH A READ OR LISTEN. Thank you for adding it to Audible.

Loved the tv series loved the books.
Sometimes when you finish reading a book there is a sense of sadness that you cannot experience the joy of reading it afresh. I felt like this when I finished reading the series.
Would like to thank the author for a happy ending for Pat, I cursed and swore along with her at Bob, and was empathising with her every inch of the way. She seemed an unlikely heroine, but carried me through all the way.
I was disappointed when there was no more filming of the books.
Well read too, it is amazing how a bad reader can utterly spoil a damned good book, not so in this case. 5stars all round.

Just a mish mash of family life
No real story just tales mostly about war widows and their boring lives, hoo rah for the good old WI to hold things together. Boring.
