The first in a nostalgic and heart-warming WWII saga series by bestselling author Maisie Thomas, that readers of Ellie Dean and Lesley Eames will love.Manchester, 1941 Kitty learned early on in her marriage that her husband, Bill Dunbar, isnt reliable with money. So when they inherit the Dunbar family hotel at the start of the war, she's hopeful that their financial worries are over until the bailiffs turn up! With Bill now in the army, its up to Kitty to turn things around for her family, or risk ruin. Lily worked as a chambermaid at Dunbars before the war. She met Daniel there, but their relationship was complicated by class differences and the disapproval of Daniels mother. Now Lily is pregnant and with Daniel away at sea, she is all alone. When tragedy strikes, will Kitty and Dunbars come to her rescue? Beatrice is in her forties, unmarried, and working in a job that exposes her to the harsh realities of poverty and sacrifice. She wonders whether the war might give her the opportunity to change lives for the better - including her own. But when she's accused of a crime she didn't commit, the future looks bleak... until Kitty makes a surprising suggestion. Can the community around Dunbars hotel pull together and provide a beacon of hope and resilience, in the dark days of war?
