About

The third heartwarming wartime saga in the Home Fires trilogy from the creator of the smash-hit ITV series. Perfect for fans of Call the Midwife.

In the midst of World War II, the members of one village WI fight harder than ever to help the war effort . . .



But behind closed doors, each is fighting a more personal battle.

Pat Simms is reeling from her own role in her abusive husband's death, and the new freedom before her is daunting. Sarah Collingborne is struggling with the absence of her husband, who is stranded in a POW camp abroad, and trying her best to fill his treasured place in the village.

Meanwhile, Teresa Lucas is anxious about her future as a parent, and her friend Alison Scotlock is on the verge of starting a new relationship. And Miriam Brindsley's good luck might be about to change . . .

Grieving for men already lost and anxious for those still away fighting, the women of Great Paxford must rely on each other. Amidst the complexities of broken relationships, loss and friendship, this group of very different women must work together to find a way through.



Don't miss the first two books in the series - Keep the Home Fires Burning and A Woman's War. Available now. S. Block, the creator and writer behind the Home Fires TV series watched by over six million viewers, is a BAFTA award-winning writer who's been nominated for the Royal Television Society Awards and the British Comedy Awards. He's worked on TV shows such as New Tricks, Lewis, Wire in the Blood, Hotel Babylon and The Inspector Lynley Mysteries, as well as shows for NBC and ABC.

Among other jobs he was an elephant keeper at London Zoo, a London bus driver and is the current director of the North London branch of The Samaritans. Simon was born in London and lives there with his wife and sons. In the depths of war, an extraordinary group of women strive to help the war effort and keep their friends and families safe. Following on from the hugely successful ITV show Home Fires, regularly bringing in 6+ million viewers, and written by the original creator. Over 65,000 copies of Keep the Home Fires Burning, the first in the series, sold across the UK and US; ebook (50k) and print (15k). 54,000 fans have signed a petition to bring the TV show Home Fires back and the petition organisers have signed up to promote the series across all platforms and their mailing list. Perfect addition to the growing saga market, will resonate with fans of Call the Midwife and readers of Nadine Dorries and Annie Groves.
