Publisher's Summary

A moving and dramatic World War II land girl saga by the author of Lily's War and Bobby's War. For listeners of Nancy Revell and Annie Groves.

It's 1942, and at 19 years old, Hannah Compton has the world at her feet. But with World War II raging, the country is in turmoil, and Hannah decides to do her bit for the War effort. Hannah's beloved grandfather taught her to grow vegetables in his market garden and inspires her to become one of over 200,000 women joining the Land Army.

Posted to Salhouse Farm on the outskirts of Norwich, Hannah is excited for the adventure ahead of her. But soon reality hits. Hannah is a city girl at heart, and life in the countryside is not what she imagined. It's cold, she hates the hard work, she misses her friends back in Manchester, and she has to share a double bed with a stranger.

As Hannah gets used to the punishing farm work and makes some friends, she starts to settle in. But she simply can't get used to living side by side with the German prisoners of war. Then a young German doctor steps in to save Hannah's life, and everything she thought she knew is brought into question.

In a country at war, will Hannah be prepared to risk everything for the enemy?

3 book & loved them all.

Loved this book! Love books that highlight the strength of women in history and realising I enjoy wwii stories.
I loved this one especially as it shows the other side to those that have suffered during the ww2. My only negative part to this book is Hannah’s story didn’t exactly line up with Lilly’s, in Lilly’s Hannah is injured & meets her future husband that way, although I love the story it’s just a shame they didn’t somehow line up on this part.
I do enjoy the author notes at the end of these books & can’t wait for the next book.
