Summary

 The heartwrenching new novel from bestselling author Kitty Neale

Can she put right the secrets of the past?

London, 1939. Winnie Berry has been the landlady of the Battersea Tavern for nearly twenty-five years, and the pub is like home to her - a place of tears and laughter, full of customers that feel like family. A place where she's learned to avoid the quick fists of her husband, and where she's raised her beloved son, David.

He's inherited his father's lazy streak and can't seem to hold down a job, but when war is declared Winnie is determined to keep her son safe. She's still haunted by the choice she made years ago as a desperate young woman, and she won't make the same mistake of letting her family be taken from her...

But when a young woman crosses her path, the secrets of Winnie's past threaten to turn her world upside down. There's nothing stronger than a mother's love - but can it ever have a second chance?

This book was on my mind every time I put it down (stopped listening) and I couldn’t wait to resume. The narrator is absolutely fantastic with the different voices for each character which made it easy for the listener to identify the characters during the chapters. The story is pretty simple but gripping at the same time and had me wanting to find out more as the story progressed. It also had a cosy feel to it , perhaps because of the decade it was set. I will definitely be reading more from this author.
