About this listen

Southampton 1920. Phoebe Collins rose to the challenge of running the family fruit and veg stall when her father did not return from the front. The work outside in Kingsland market in all weathers can be hard, but with her mother and younger brother Tim to support, she's determined that it continue to be a success.

However, when Phoebe finds herself in the wrong place at the wrong time and witnesses something terrible, she will need all her strength to face the trials ahead and the fear that her loved ones may come to harm.

I really enjoyed this book. So interesting and not predictable. Good fun with a bit of drama thrown in. Frustratingly the entirety of an important wedding is left out between chapter 32 and 33. The sentence just cuts out and then it’s Christmas and they’re living in their new home. Really frustrating as that is a big and important part of the story. Otherwise a fabulous story and audiobook .

Enthralling read!

I really enjoyed the characters, the storyline was interesting enough. However I didn't feel it had the flavour of the 1920,s. It felt a bit modern day in quite a few ways, a little casual also with little regard to a young woman's respectability.

Also there was a chapter which was cut short even deleting and reloading it was still missing a chunk. I don't know if this was down to Audible or the publishers, however I was a little saddened to miss a wedding.

A nice story but lacking substance

story is good, but the Southampton accent is just a no from me. I have lived my entire life in Southampton and this narrators accent is more London, really annoying 😏

accent 🤦🏼‍♀️

It is an okay book. A bit too slow moving for my taste. Too bad something is wrong with chapter 32.

Chapter 32 is not complete

I just didn’t warm to it, a bit of an interesting story but all a bit “blah” and I found the voices a tad annoying…. Have loved other books by her though

i disliked nothing about the story. it could have been any time though so a little more 1920’s description’s would have been good.

I enjoyed this listen the story was good but benefited from the excellent narration you  could imagine each character when they spoke which made it all the more enjoyable.

This was a sweet story that follows the lives of various layers of characters. Loved the accent of the various characters and the threads of the story that was told well

Good wholesome crime vs love story read
