From the Sunday Times bestselling author, Nancy Revell. This is her second novel in the compelling Shipyard Girls series.
Nancy Revell is the author of the Shipyard Girls series, which is
set in the north-east of England during World War II.
She is a former journalist who worked for all the national
newspapers, providing them with hard-hitting news stories and
in-depth features. Nancy also wrote amazing and inspirational true
life stories for just about every woman's magazine in the
country.
When she first started writing the Shipyard Girls series, Nancy
relocated back to her hometown of Sunderland, Tyne and Wear, along
with her husband, Paul. They now live just a short walk away from
the beautiful award-winning beaches of Roker and Seaburn, within a
mile of where the books are set.
The subject is particularly close to Nancy's heart as she comes
from a long line of shipbuilders, who were well known in the area.
THE SECOND SHIPYARD GIRLS NOVEL. 1941: it takes strength to work on
the docks, but the war demands all hands on deck and the women are
doing their best to fill the gap. Rosie is flourishing in her role
as head-welder, Gloria is hiding her own little secret, and the
shipyards are proving tougher than Polly ever imagined.
*from the publisher's description*
Arrow have a speciality in publishing these sweeping historical
novels. It is easy to see why the genre is so popular in general,
but also why Nancy Revell’s books are so popular. Researched within
an inch of its life; the novel is enjoyably entertaining. A perfect
way to spend hours, wrapped up in the characters’ lives. This is
the second book in The Shipyard Girls saga and it is not only just
as good as the first, but a perfect continuation. Recommended
reading.
*Frost Magazine*
If you loved The Shipyard Girls you’ll be itching to get your hands
on this sequel … a brilliant read!
*Take a Break*
Nancy creates strong characters that come alive as you read. I
loved finding out about their individual journeys. Nancy writes
about some serious issues but she writes it in such away that it is
also filled with hope that things will get better. If you love
reading about strong women, love and family in time of war this is
a book for you.
