Bestselling author Lyn Andrews’s nostalgic saga THE LEAVING OF LIVERPOOL is perfect reading for fans of Kate Thompson and Ellie Dean.

It is 1919 and Liverpool has been devastated by World War I. Sons, husbands and fathers have been lost and street after street plunged into mourning. Now, at last, the war is finally over. Emily Parkinson goes back into service and enjoys the return to normality. But Emily’s younger sister, Phoebe-Anne, has ideas beyond her station.

But as Emily slowly recovers it seems that Phoebe-Anne might just be able to escape the mistakes of her past after all – even if it does mean leaving Liverpool…
