Summary

The next exciting, gritty book from Lizzie Lane in the bestselling Coronation Close saga series.

There’s talk of war and dark clouds fester on the horizon...

Bristol 1938

A shadowy presence overshadows Coronation Close, watching and waiting. Jenny Crawford is the first to notice the stranger and wonders why his attention is fixed on Thelma Dawson’s house. When challenged he makes a hasty retreat.

Meanwhile Thelma is having trouble with her precocious daughter Mary who is about to leave school and start work. Mary considers herself an adult but to Thelma she’s still a little girl; an attitude resented by her daughter.

Unknown to her mother, Mary is secretly befriended by a stranger, an older man who treats her as the grown up she thinks she is. But what does this man want with this naïve young girl?

Problems shared are problems halved. Jenny and Thelma certainly share theirs as the shadow of war rolls over from Europe and nothing seems certain.

Perfect for the fans of Rosie Clarke, Fenella Miller and Kitty Neale

Why the name change?

I did enjoy the story, as I've enjoyed the previous two books in this series. And Anne Dover's narration was first class as always.
However, I have only given the book 4 stars due to a very obvious continuity error. Robin Hubert's wife's name has been changed from Doreen to Doris! I found this extremely annoying and am very surprised it wasn't picked up on in the editing process. One minor character even calls her Doreen, but is then told by Jenny that her name is Doris!

Book 3 - Excellent!

As usual storyline is brilliant and the narrator is fantastic, she always makes the the audiobooks more enjoyable, especially as I listen at night as I have problems sleeping. I find Annie very relaxing to listen too.
