Secrets of the Singer Girls is Kate Thompson's heartwarming and
moving novel about the brave, hardworking women who kept the
homefires burning in the East End of London during World War Two.
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.
