Produktbeschreibung

A CITY RAVAGED BY WAR

From Elizabeth Elgin, whose tales of love and loos during the great wars are in a class of their own comes a captivating story of passion and pain.

A GIRL ON THE BRINK OF PASSION

Against the background of bomb-ravaged Liverpool, Meg Blundell mourns the death of her beloved mother. She is nineteen, father unknown, her past veiled in mystery by her Ma. Why, she wonders, does the rent man never call at No.1 Tippet's Yard? He does everywhere else. Why did Ma avoid talk of her father, but speak only of the idyllic house called Candlefold - a haven and a heaven to her?

With Ma gone, Meg must go back to her roots; and in the long sweet summer of 1941 and find and lose love.

A SECRET PAST TO BE UNCOVERED

Thronged with unforgettable characters, both above and below stairs, with young women on the verge of passion and the men who must leave them, 'The Willow Pool' enchants and enthrals.
