Standing at the station, with few possessions in the little case she is clutching, she is ready to leave that scarred city to experience life as an evacuee in rural Lincolnshire, an environment as far removed as any foreign country. This child is a dreamer, a gentle, intelligent, passive soul, and not at all the sort of girl to cope with the coarse ways of her foster parents. Elsie Porter's rough and obsessive mothering combined with the horrors of earth closets, fat bacon, sexual abuse and complicity in murder cause deep unhappiness and a fear of life itself. When she finds herself suddenly orphaned, life becomes intolerable. This is a perceptive novel about Hannah's life, probing the effects of those early experiences as she grows into a young woman, until she is finally forced to confront the ghosts of her past.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49553412227345,"sku":"GOR001196971","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/B0092G64BW.jpg?v=1751420394"},{"product_id":"magic-mooncat-book-lois-fenn-9780954288402","title":"The Magic Mooncat","description":"Nine-year-old Hannah Flynn is evacuated from Hull to rural Lincolnshire in September 1941.

However, she finds herself drawn inexorably into the joys and tribulations of family life, although her continued interest in paranormal happenings and her strong belief in predestination cause concern. The family relationships continue to develop as life moves into a digital world full of new ideas, yet Hannah Clayton maintains the standards set in the formative years of her life. Edge of Square Nine is the third book in the Lincolnshire Trilogy. As with the first two books, The Magic Mooncat and Cobwebs in Time, Lois Fenn offers an intriguing story, full of nostalgia for many. Lois Fenn encourages her readers to brush up against both reality and fantasy, perhaps prompting them to recall strange and intriguing experiences in their own lives. These are stories that are much loved. Although the book is enjoyable as a standalone, it is worth seeking out the earlier two books, beginning with those evocative years of Hannah's evacuation from the war-torn city of Hull to the green fields of Lincolnshire: three great reads if you haven't come across the series already","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49634597601553,"sku":"GOR006588444","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52460237979921,"sku":"GOR009061847","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0954288432.jpg?v=1751439306"},{"product_id":"naughty-marigold-book-lois-fenn-9780954288440","title":"Naughty Marigold","description":"At the death of her husband, wealthy Caroline Thorston welcomes a new beginning, yet the past continues to haunt her.
