About this listen

Book three in the heartwarming wartime saga in the Home Fires series, perfect for fans of Rosie Clarke and Annie Groves.

In the midst of World War II, the members of one village WI fight harder than ever to help the war effort.

But behind closed doors, each is fighting a more personal battle.

Pat Simms is reeling from her own role in her abusive husband's death, and the new freedom before her is daunting. Sarah Collingborne is struggling with the absence of her husband, who is stranded in a POW camp abroad, and trying her best to fill his treasured place in the village.

Meanwhile, Teresa Lucas is anxious about her future as a parent, and her friend Alison Scotlock is on the verge of starting a new relationship. And Miriam Brindsley's good luck might be about to change.

Grieving for men already lost and anxious for those still away fighting, the women of Great Paxford must rely on each other. Amidst the complexities of broken relationships, loss and friendship, this group of very different women must work together to find a way through.

Watched the ITV series and just had to find out how everyone lives worked out. I was not disappointed.

Very satisfactory depiction of a village community during Second World war.

Loved all the characters stories and how they intertwine with each other. The narrator was true to the characters dialects which really brought the story to life

Excellent narration

I absolutely LOVED listening to this book. I have watched the tv series Home Fires 1 & 2 and this is the 3rd book which continues from series 2. Fenella Woolgar is a FANTASTIC story teller and even spoke just like the characters. As she spoke I could see them talking with each other. I listened I. The kitchen, before bed and in the car! 5* to the narration, something which isn’t an easy thing to master. I shall look out for more books read by her. Now to the story of what would have been series 3. I would love to see this made as a series, but it seems it isn’t going to happen. It was a really good storyline, kept me engaged and wanting to know more. Characters were true to the era and there was plenty of intrigue and drama, some sad bits and some happy bits. I don’t want to give anything g away but this book is WELL WORTH A READ OR LISTEN. Thank you for adding it to Audible.

Great read

after watching Home fires on U I was gutted to find 2 series only with a cliff hanger. the story is finally completed in this third installment read beautifully and articulately by Fenalla Woolgar who has a fabulous impression of all the characters so much so I could imagine Francesca Annis Ruth Gemmell and Samantha Bond characters perfectly. obviously she had Alison down to T as she played her in the show some might know her better as Sister Hilda in call the midwife! Thoroughly enjoyed it all which made me wish the tv show was back on. don't think Ruth can be spares from bridgerton.

Finally got my Home Fire ending
