A BRAND-NEW heart-stirring and emotional WW2 saga of friendship, courage and the power of community perfect for fans of Jean Fullerton, Donna Douglas and Call the Midwife
1941 - Amid the bombs falling over London s East End, the residents of West India Dock Road endure wartime with courage, defiance and a good dose of humour.
From nights spent sheltering together in the Underground station to sharing gossip, pastimes and meals, they lean on each other as their world is turned upside down.
Since the bombing of her family s boarding house, Charity has held her loved ones together, and now, with her heart set on becoming a sugar girl working for Tate & Lyle, she s determined to forge a new path, despite prejudice about her relationship with the Indian soldier she loves.
Her best friend Divya serves up warmth and spice in her beloved curry house, but is hiding a secret that grows more urgent with each passing day. What will happen when it is revealed?
Ruth is a newcomer, recently arrived from wartorn Europe and haunted by the atrocities she s experienced. On West India Dock Road she finds not just refuge but an unlikely family.
As heartache affects them all and bonds are tested, can these three women find hope and happiness, even in the darkest of times?
A sweeping, heart-warming wartime saga of love, sacrifice and the power of community.
