SHORTLISTED FOR HWA Crown Awards 2021 'A book to be treasured and
returned to again and again' The Independent 'Funny, moving and
utterly life-enhancing' Daily Mail With caustic wit and artful
storytelling, Lissa Evans elegantly summons a time when the world
could finally hope to emerge from the chaos of war. ___ It's late
1944. Hitler's rockets are slamming down on London with vicious
regularity and it's the coldest winter in living memory. Allied
victory is on its way, but it's bloody well dragging its feet. In a
large house next to Hampstead Heath, Vee Sedge is just about
scraping by, with a herd of lodgers to feed, and her young charge
Noel ( almost fifteen ) to clothe and educate. When she witnesses a
road accident and finds herself in court, the repercussions are
both unexpectedly marvellous and potentially disastrous -
disastrous because Vee is not actually the person she's pretending
to be, and neither is Noel. The end of the war won't just mean
peace, but discovery... ___ Readers love V For Victory: ***** 'The
characters stay in the memory and heart.' ***** 'It's pitch perfect
- funny, sad, moving, compelling' ***** 'Full of warmth, wit and
wisdom, an absolute joy'
