The Shopkeeper's Daughter

She was determined to succeed in business and build a life for herself and her family. The compelling new Second World War novel from the author of The Girls in Blue.
Â Â Â Â Â June 1944. Eighteen-year-old Ginnie Travis works in her father's furniture shop in the suburbs of East London when the continued bombing raids and her sister's untimely pregnancy force the two girls to go and stay with their aunt in Shropshire.

Â Â Â Â Â Here Ginnie falls in love with an American, Lieutenant Nick Miller, stationed nearby. But she discovers Nick has a fiancÃ©e back home and a heart-broken Ginnie ends the relationship. Then news of their father's death in an air raid reaches them. Hurrying back to London, Ginnie finds herself in sole charge of the shop.

Â Â Â Â Â With the family left almost penniless and Shirley and her child to provide for, Ginnie is responsible for them all. And when the shop comes under threat, she is even more determined to make it succeed and build a life for herself and her family.
