Description

A compelling novel about four young women in wartime London, from the best-selling author of London Belles and My Sweet Valentine. In Article Row, four young women, Tilly, Sally, Dulcie and Agnes, have already been witnesses to the heartache and pain that Hitler's bombs have inflicted on ordinary Londoners. As they navigate the challenges of war, they must confront their own fears, desires and relationships. Their lives are marked by loss and uncertainty, but also by moments of hope and connection. For Tilly, the prospect of a future with her loved one is threatened by the war. Her mother, Olive, struggles to cope with her own worries, while her friend Dulcie finds herself drawn to a man who has been injured in the conflict. Meanwhile, Agnes is about to discover a secret that will change her life forever. In this powerful and emotional novel, the girls will learn about love, loss and heartache, but they will also discover the strength and resilience that defines them.
