About this listen

A heartwarming tale of wartime courage, and the untold story of the animals who needed a home

But Edie’s hopes of serving overseas are dashed when she’s sent to be a Land Girl in a sleepy Cumbrian village.

Prue has shut the world out since her son went away to fight. Yet when she’s asked to take in a Land Girl and two little evacuees from London, she has no choice.

Edie’s heart breaks, seeing the children’s cold welcome. But when the evacuees take in a stray puppy, even Prue can’t say no.

It’s not long before Edie realises Applefield Manor could become a sanctuary to all those without a home in wartime. But can she persuade Prue to open her heart, and her home?

A moving, uplifting wartime story that fans of Dilly Court and Kitty Neale will love.

‘An unputdownable, uplifting read which will tug at your heartstringsRosie Hendry, author of The Mother’s Day Club
