Land Girls at the Wartime Bookshop

by Lesley Eames

Overview

As the war continues, the village of Churchwood has never needed its bookshop more. But the bookshop comes under threat at the worst possible time... Kate has always found life on Brimbles Farm difficult, but she is struggling more than ever to find time for the bookshop, for her friends - and especially for handsome pilot Leo Kinsella. Can two Land Girls help? Or will they be more trouble than they're worth? Naomi has found new friends and purpose through the bookshop and is happier than she's been in a long time - until she overhears something that makes her suspect her husband is being unfaithful. With old insecurities rearing up, she needs to uncover the truth. Alice worries for her fiancé Daniel away fighting in the war and frets over the loss of her financial independence following an injury to her hand. With no job opportunities in Churchwood, might she find work somewhere else? Despite their problems, can Alice, Kate and Naomi pull together to save the bookshop and keep Churchwood spirits high?
