About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

The fifth brilliantly heart-warming novel in the Wartime Bookshop series, perfect for fans of Maisie Thomas and Elaine Everest.


Victoria is astonished when she discovers an abandoned newborn baby on her doorstep, along with a note begging her to 'take care of little Rose'. Who is the mother? Victoria, Naomi and the Churchwood bookshop organising team set about trying to identify her, concerned for her welfare and hoping to give her a chance to reclaim her baby.

As they piece together the heartbreaking story, all sorts of surprises emerge. But they can't keep the baby a secret for long: can they reunite the little family before the authorities take Rose away?

I’ve enjoyed the wartime bookshop series but the introduction of so many new leading characters in the foundling made it difficult to follow initially and I missed hearing more about the original characters of Alice and Kate. I enjoyed the story overall but it took a while to get into and wasn’t the best in the series

Lots of new characters
