Girl with Secrets: the perfect wartime family saga, set in London’s docklands.
From the Sunday Times and ebook bestselling author of the Lizzie Flowers series and A Wartime Christmas comes a gripping NEW family saga about love, loyalties, loss and renewal.
IN THE TURMOIL OF WAR, CAN SHE KEEP HER FAMILY TOGETHER?
1938, Isle of Dogs, East London. Nine year old Daisy Purbright is a country girl at heart and together with beloved brother Bobby, they’ve enjoyed the endless freedoms of rural England. But when her entrepreneur father gambles the family’s fortunes on a speculative investment in London’s docklands, Daisy and her family are swept up into the catastrophic mistake he is making. As the Purbrights attempt to settle to a new life in the East End, the whisperings of war grow louder. Then, one late afternoon in September 1940, Adolf Hitler conducts a paralysing bombardment on London. Life changes dramatically and closely guarded secrets begin to threaten the Purbrights’ happiness. As war tightens its grip on the country, can Daisy stay loyal to her friends and family during one of the most fateful events of the 20th century?
About Carol Rivers
Mum and Dad were both East Enders who were born on the famous or should I say the then infamous Isle of Dogs. Their family were immigrants who travelled to the UK from Ireland and France, while others emigrated to America.
As a child I would listen to the adults spinning their colourful stories, as my cousins and I drank pop under the table.
I know the seeds of all my stories come from those far off times that feel like only yesterday. So I would like to say a big heartfelt thank you to all my family and ancestors wherever you are now... UK, Ireland, France or America, as you've handed down to me the magic and love of story telling.
