It is 1946: the war is over and three young women face a new kind
of life. But peacetime brings its own pressures . . . Katie
O'Neill's childhood has been dominated by her temperamental mother
and by frightening secrets that she barely understands. Innocent,
yet hungry for love, she is easily taken in by male charm and is
left outcast and alone with her young son. Emma Brown has spent the
war at home in Birmingham, longing for her husband Norm to return
and meet the son he has never seen. But she soon finds that the joy
of homecoming only brings a whole new set of problems. And Molly
Fox, after a sad and brutal childhood, found a place to belong
during the war, in the women's army, the ATS. Now, the women are no
longer wanted and Molly finds peacetime a bleak, difficult
challenge. Finding work in guesthouses and holiday camps, she keeps
running from herself, in search of a place she can call home. All
the Days of Our Lives by Annie Murray is the story of three girls
who first met in a Birmingham classroom in the 1930s, each facing
life with all its joys, sorrows and surprises.
