A new series from bestselling author Kate Thompson. 'Kate
Thompson's wartime novels always strike a chord and Secrets of the
Homefront Girls is no exception. You can almost smell the Yardley
violets drifting over the factory as the girls live lives
complicated by the trials and tribulations of war' My Weekly 'Kate
Thompson's put the lives of women working in the Yardley factory
during the Blitz at the heart of her latest novel' Woman's Hour
Stratford, 1939. Britain may be at war, but on the home front
keeping up morale and keeping up appearances go hand in hand. For
the young women working on the lipstick production line at
Yardley's cosmetics factory, it's business as usual. Headstrong
Renee Gunn is the queen of the lipstick belt - although her cheeky
attitude means she's often in trouble. When Esther, an Austrian
refugee, arrives at Yardley's, it's Renee who takes her under her
wing and teaches her to be a true cockney. But outside of the
factory, things are more complicated. Lily, Renee's older sister,
has suddenly returned home after six years away, and is hiding a
dark secret. Meanwhile Esther is finding life in England more
difficult than expected, and it's not long before Renee finds
herself in trouble, with nowhere to turn. In the face of the Blitz,
the Yardley girls are bound together by friendship and loyalty -
but could the secrets they are hiding be the biggest danger of all?
'A compelling saga set around the tenacious women of the East End'
Daisy Styles 'Kate Thompson is a skillful and humane storyteller
who lights up the sooty face of the old East End with tales full of
drama and human interest.' Annie Murray
