LONDON CALLING (Lavender Road Book 4)
It is December 1942. The war is showing no signs of ending. Allied forces are battling Rommel’s army in North Africa. But times are tough on the home front too. Especially for the residents of Lavender Road in South London. Actress Jen Carter, desperate to make her name on the stage, is hampered by a secret fear that she is not really good enough for the big time. Katy Frazer, worn down by the effort of running a pub, is concerned that her glamorous, intrepid husband, Ward Frazer, will soon find her too drab and dull and may begin to look elsewhere. Joyce Carter, recently liberated from an abusive relationship, is prevented from forging a new attachment by the unexpected arrival back in London of her unruly teenage daughter after three years of evacuation. But for young, trainee nurse, Molly Coogan, things are even worse. Molly is desperate to escape the oppressive discipline of the old fashioned Wilhelmina hospital. But when her wish comes true, and she finds herself on the way to North Africa, she quickly realises that she has jumped out of the frying pan into a very dangerous and challenging fire.
