Available to pre-order now - a brand new saga from the author of A Christmas Miracle on Sanctuary Lane!

Richmond, 1940. As the Battle of Britain rages on, at the Poppy Factory Estate disabled WWI veterans prepare for a secret wartime project while making remembrance poppies.

Meanwhile, three of their daughters are coming of age.

Carrie wants nothing to do with war and just wants to go to university. Sarah, the daughter of a WWI war hero, desperately wants to prove her own worth, while Mabel likes to keep herself to herself. But one thing's for certain; these determined women are a lot more than just 'the Poppy Girls'.

But as the Blitz begins, amidst the tumult of wartime romances and secrecy on the estate, the girls are thrown together in ways they couldn't ever have imagined. Can they put aside their differences for the greater good?

Praise for the Sanctuary Lane series: 'This superbly plotted saga has all the ingredients of a heartwarming and engrossing read' Maisie Thomas 'I was hooked from the start. The meticulous period detail and true-to-life characters had me immersed in the action, and I didn't want the story to end. A joy to read' Vicki Beeby 'A wonderful wartime family saga not to be put down' ***** Reader Review 'This book was BRILLIANT! I loved the characters - especially Ruby and Leah - both very interesting young women in very different ways' ***** Reader Review
