Summary
1942. Sixteen-year-old Poppy Percival turns up at Trout's clothing factory to start work as a seamstress.
Poppy harbours a secret - one from which she is still suffering. But she's not the only one with a secret. Each of her new friends at the factory is hiding something painful.
The war will throw their lives into turmoil but also bring these women closer to each other than they could ever have imagined.

Wow, just Wow!
I seem to have always known about this disaster, not sure how. I love history, born & bread in North London. This book made my cry, so touching, emotional. Puts things into perspective it really does, those poor families. So beautifully written by Kate Thompson. Amazing narrative as always by Anne Dover. Thank you.

Story about women brought together in a factory during wartime.
Each woman hiding a secret from the past.
I found the story gripping,exciting, sad and found it difficult to stop.

An emotional roller coaster.
An incredible story of women pulling together through the adversity of the Second World War in Bethnal Green. I wasn't sure that this was my sort of book but I loved every minute of it. Once it gets going the pace is fast and you don't know where the next revelation is coming from. The book was obviously very well researched as the historic details are spot on. I would recommend this to anyone.
