About this listen

1940, Great Paxford, Cheshire. When a spitfire crashes in the village, the lives of an extraordinary community of women will change forever: Frances Barden's greatest challenge is only just beginning; Pat Simms received a respite when her abusive husband went to war, but now he's home Pat doesn't know who to turn to; and for newlyweds Teresa and Nick, the plane crash on their wedding day may just be the start of their troubles. Meanwhile, the life of the Campbell family will never be the same following a devastating tragedy....

Lots of drama and compelling characters. I wasn't a fan of the constantly switching perspectives though. I would have preferred it if they had one characters perspective for each chapter rather than multiple characters per chapter.

A brilliant read

Loved the two TV series but this dragged on too much for me. Not sure the screenplay worked as well as a story. Shame!

Not the best

I didn’t know what to expect but this lived up to and beyond anything I could’ve hoped for from the sequel to Home fires on TV. I love the series on TV and I was so shocked and sad when it was discontinued. I am so glad that this book is in existence. It is gripping, exciting, heartfelt, tear jerking, and uplifting.

Even Better than the Series!

Narration was dire. But it's a nice wee story, and as I was expecting without a proper ending. So I'm still left wondering what happens to Pat!!!

Lovely story but........!

I loved the show when it was on tv and was gutted when it got axed, then I heard about this book, it took me right back to the show. I really hope there are more of these books to come,I loved every minute of it.

Loved every minute
