Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

London, 1939

When tragedy strikes, Libby Andrews is left homeless and destitute, fending for herself on the capital's most dangerous streets.

Desperate times call for desperate measures, and Libby is on the cusp of making a decision that could jeopardise her future when a local boy saves her from ruin.

The kindness of this stranger sets her on a different path, and Libby heads to Liverpool with a determined mind and hope in her heart.

There, she reconnects with long lost family - but will she be able to uncover the truth that tore them apart all those years ago?

Great story all too short!

I listened to Katie Flynn in earlier times and always enjoyed her stories. This story was no exception - it slowly built to something enjoyable with a touch of intrigue. The narration was very good, including different voices for the characters - and it was all easy on the ear. My disappointment came when for me, it finished all too quickly. There were still questoins to be answered in my view. There was a resolution but I wanted more by way of resolving the story that had evolved. That said, I will now search out this author again as she, undoubtedly, weaves a nice, easy listening story that you can just sit and relax with.

A story cut short

This is not the book for anybody who wants a rounded ending, because there is no ending.

The book which is quite inventive and contains much emotional turmoil with some intrigue in the mix starts with a perfidious "uncle", or is he?

The book written by Holly with original ideas by her mum needs a further volume to clear the mysteries and round up the many loose ends that have no right to be left to the reader's own imaginings.

Please satisfy one reader's appetite for a clear finish to the tale.
