London Calling by Helen Carey

London Calling by Helen Carey

It's December 1942, and German air raids have devastated south London.
While their husbands and loved-ones face up to Hitler's forces in Europe and North Africa, the women of Lavender Road have their own problems to confront.
Lavender Road is a perfectly ordinary London street. But in wartime ordinary people sometimes find themselves doing extraordinary things, and nurse Molly Coogan and actress Jen Carter are about to take on the biggest challenge of their lives.

LONDON CALING was shortlisted for the 2017 RoNA Award for Best Historical Romance.
'In this dramatic and poignant novel, hugely popular British novelist Helen Carey depicts the courage and resilience of ordinary people caught up in an extraordinary war.'

London Evening Standard. 'What a fantastic book. Loved it from the first page.'
Amazon review 'This book is an incredible tale of bravery, love and trust.'

Carey, Helen: - Helen Carey is best known for her popular Lavender Road series, which is set in South London during the Second World War. The Lavender Road novels include LAVENDER ROAD, SOME SUNNY DAY, ON A WING AND A PRAYER, LONDON CALLING and THE OTHER SIDE OF THE STREET. Helen started writing about the war when she met a neighbour at a bus stop in London who pointed out where the air-raid shelters used to be on Clapham Common. That sparked an interest in the Second World War, especially for lesser known details, which now appear in Helen's spell-binding novels. Having lived in London, Germany, Switzerland and the West Indies, Helen now lives in Newport, Pembrokeshire, on a small coastal farm which she and her husband run as a conservation project. She is also a prize winning artist and has made a gallery out of a converted goat shed. As well as painting and writing she teaches Creative Writing at various universities and currently has a Royal Literary Fund fellowship at Aberystwyth University.
