About this listen

Bristol - 1953.

It’s Coronation Year. A new beginning in the aftermath of war, but there are still battles to be fought and secrets to be kept.

Charlotte Hennessey-White copes with the shortcomings of her marriage and throws herself into helping refugees unwelcome by some and exploited by others.

Edna Burbage has three beautiful children and considers herself lucky until the advent of a deadly twentieth century disease makes her think otherwise.

Polly Chandler still hopes for a better life, but there are too many obstacles standing in her way.

These three women lived through a war, can they now cope with the demands of peace?

This was a follow up to the first following three friends from different walks of life bought together during the war years. This follows how their friendship continues through good and bad times. It was told in a way that you really got to get to know each character. A great story, with a real feel good feeling at times.

A wonderful post war story
