Tea with Miss MalloryA World War II story of quiet courage and found familyBy Robin WickensMiss Agatha Mallory doesn't do surprises. Her life is orderly, her tea is always served at four o'clock sharp, and her best china hasn't seen company in years.But everything changes in 1941 when three bombed-out children arrive from London. The village of Berrymere has become a refuge for evacuees-and for the first time in her life, Agatha says yes to something uncertain.Elsie is clever and cautious. Peter is a whirlwind of scraped knees and mischief. And baby Dot? Well, she's learning to walk-and scream. Suddenly, Agatha's house is filled with muddy boots, laughter, grief, and late-night lullabies.What begins as a duty becomes something far deeper. Through air raids, rationing, telegrams, and the ache of wartime loss, Agatha finds herself changing in ways she never expected. And in the children, she finds something she never dared hope for: a family of her own.Poignant, uplifting, and richly atmospheric, Tea with Miss Mallory is a love letter to quiet heroism, small kindnesses, and the enduring power of chosen family.A perfect read for fans of historical fiction with heart.
