The war is over, but there’s heartbreak ahead…

**Liverpool, 1945.** As the war draws to a close, **Alice and Terry Lomax** are building a new life with their young daughter **Cathy**. After years away fighting, Terry is a stranger to his daughter and must work hard to win her trust and love.

Alice and old friend **Sadie** work in the haberdashery of Lewis’s department store, where bomb damage scars the walls and rationing is still in force. Yet Lewis’s remains open, a sign of strength in the midst of Liverpool’s post-war ruins.

Though memories of those lost in the war are fresh, Alice and Sadie look forward to the future. But then a tragic accident leaves Alice a widow, and the father of Sadie’s child – a man she hoped never to see again – is back in Liverpool…

With Alice struggling to start again alone, and Sadie desperate to protect her son, can these two shop girls overcome their troubles and keep their hopes alive – even with all the odds against them?


***The Shop Girls of Lark Lane* is a heart-wrenching family saga about the strength of friendship and the costs of war. If you love Nadine Dorries, Diney Costeloe and Kitty Neale, you won’t want to miss Pam Howes!**
