From Mary Wood, bestselling author of The Jam Factory Girls, comes the second heartfelt installment in The Guernsey Girls trilogy.

War separates them, but it cannot dampen their spirits . . .

Spring, 1940.
Annie’s new husband Ricky leaves to fight, but she soon discovers battles brewing closer to home. As her sister Janey begins to unravel, only Annie can pick up the pieces – and, with London’s police officers on the front line, she must also step up at work and do her bit for the country.

In Guernsey, Olivia finds herself without her husband and son just as Hitler's forces invade the island. Trapped and heartbroken, she faces untold horrors as the Germans tighten their hold on the islanders.

How will Annie manage her responsibilities to her family and her country in the thick of the Blitz, while suffering the heartache of not knowing what is happening to her beloved Ricky? And can Olivia survive in Guernsey at the hands of the enemy?

why take us through two books delving into the life of these women just to kill them off. I seemed a lazy conclusion and spoiled the book for me. I don't think I will bother with book 3.

shock factor didn't work
