About this product

Product Information

1942. Sixteen-year-old Poppy Percival turns up at the gates of Trout's clothing factory in Bethnal Green with no idea what her new life might have in store. There to start work as a seamstress and struggling to get to grips with the noise, dirt and devastation of East London, Poppy can't help but miss the quiet countryside of home. But Poppy harbours a dark secret - one that wrenched her away from all she knew and from which she is still suffering . . . And Poppy's not the only one with a secret. Each of her new friends at the factory is hiding something painful. Vera Shadwell, the forelady, has had a hard life with scars both visible and concealed; her sister Daisy has romantic notions that could get her in trouble; and Sal Fowler, a hardworking mother who worries about her two evacuated boys for good reason. Bound by ties of friendship, loyalty and family, the devastating events of the war will throw each of their lives into turmoil but also bring these women closer to each other than they could ever have imagined.

Great seller! Item arrived on time and was well packaged. If I was to have one niggle about this item, it is that, in the description it states that all pages will be free from markings. However, there were pages within this book that had been highlited by the previous owner. Other than that though, I am very satisfied and will definitely buy from this seller again.

Good service, quick delivery. However item was described as "very good" and I would describe it as.. fair (see photos). I guess this is reflected in the price but probably wouldn't have bought in this condition if I'm being honest.

    This book is a brilliant read and its hard to put down! I would also recommend secrets of the Sewing Bee by the same author. Another skillfully written and powerful book.

  • good read

    This book follows on from Secrets of a Sewing Bee, and carries on with the remaining characters in the story. It's an enjoyable read of people and times during the war and how everyone pulled together.
