â€˜I absolutely loved The Forgotten Girls. It is a beautiful, compelling readâ€¦ Lizzie Page writes like a dream... I will be recommending this book to everyone I know.â€™ Goodreads reviewer, 5 stars

London, 1943. German bombs rain down on London, but Elaine Parker knows her job transcribing letters from far-away prisoners of war is more important than her own safety. At home, Elaineâ€™s life isnâ€™t so simple â€“ as the main breadwinner for her struggling family, she doesnâ€™t have much time to consider her own future hopes and dreams.

And then Elaine meets dark-haired and passionate Bobby â€“ a wartime photographer on the dangerous front line â€“ and her world shifts. Will Elaine be forced to choose between her family and her growing passion for Bobby? And how do you let yourself love someone with your whole heart when each moment could be their last?

Present day. Even the kiss of warm sunshine and the musical call of birds at her familyâ€™s countryside villa canâ€™t make Jen forget the heartbreak sheâ€™s left behind. That is, until she begins to investigate the origins of a tattered family photograph: two sweet little girls gazing out across a sparkling bay, their eyes clear and hopeful â€“ looking for all the world as if England hadnâ€™t just suffered the most terrible war imaginable. What is the story behind the picture, and could it finally be the key to mending the cracks in Jenâ€™s own past?

A heartbreaking World War Two novel â€“ emotional and unforgettable. Perfect for fans of Orphan Train, Sold on a Monday and Before We Were Yours.
