Dear Alice, dreadful news was told to me today... Bristol, 1941: Alice Watts leaves the shell-shocked city for her new life as a Land Girl on Home Farm. It's a completely different from her quiet old world, but she's determined to do her part. And the back-breaking work is made bearable with the help from her two new friends - bold, outspoken Fay and quiet, guarded Evie - and the letters that arrive from her childhood friend, Sam Carmichael... To Alice, Sam was always more than just a friend, but as the son of her wealthy employer, she never dared dream he could be more... But at least ever letter brings reassurance that he's still alive and fighting on the frontline...

A tale of true courage and the power of sheer determination, this un-put-downable WWII set saga is filled with warmth, humour and heart-wrenching emotion. Perfect for fans...
