Victory Girls Helen Carey

It's August 1944. Allied forces are finally making headway in Europe. But rocket attacks on London are a chilling reminder that the war is not yet won. Victory may be just round the corner, but the fighting is far from over for the women of Lavender Road.

Helen de Burrel knows from bitter experience how dangerous things are in war-torn France, but it's a long time since she heard from André Cabillard, her French fiancé, and nothing is going to stop her going back to track him down. Meanwhile, her friend Molly Coogan has returned to London after a spell of nursing in North Africa, and now it is suddenly important to her to discover the truth about the mother who gave her up for adoption when she was four years old.

Sweeping from London to France and on into Germany as Hitler's army begins to retreat, Victory Girls is full of emotion, excitement and suspense, which will hold readers on the edge of their seats
