About this listen

There was a new family in Browning Street, Walworth - the Harrisons. Respectable and well-behaved, the only thing unusual about them was that Mr Harrison was never there. He was a sailor, said Ma Harrison, away fighting pirates in the China Seas. Actually, 'Knocker' Harrison was in Marsham Gaol - he had unfortunately burgled a lady's suite when she happened to be there. Pa wasn't really a very good burglar.

When young Nick Harrison, eldest son and heir of Ma and Knocker, met Annabelle Somers, he found himself in a very difficult situation. For 17-year-old Annabelle was a peach of a girl, was related to the highly respectable Adams family and was really quite keen on Nick, very interested in him and in his family. What with keeping Annabelle at arm's length in case she found out about Pa, and with the problems of running the Browning Street Rovers football team (the ball was owned by Chrissie Evans who laid down her own rules about the team), Nick sometimes wondered if his life would ever be sorted out.

Enjoyable listen and lovely connection to the original Adams family. Love the return of dad at the end and effort he went to, to keep gossips at bay!

An interesting swap from original Adams fam

Book 8 of Series starting in 1906.Now set in 1930’s. Family Life, ups & downs & mischief they get up to. Would make a great TV series. Witty dialogue and very well read with distinct voices for each character. Got me through many difficult times before and after major surgery.
