Synopsis

In her nostalgic and heart-warming new saga, Sunday Times bestselling author Lyn Andrews evokes the ups and downs of life in the back streets of 1930s Liverpool

Liverpool, World War II. Monica Eustace and Joan McDonald met as next-door-neighbours living in Mersey View in Liverpool. Their friendship is a close as ever, though they're married now, and sharing Monica's grand house on the other side of the city. But war clouds are gathering, casting a shadow over the happy future they dream of with their young husbands . . . Meanwhile, in London, Joan's half-sister Bella is overwhelmed with the glitz and glamour of the city while she's training as a singer - but will she forget her friends back home?

As war descends on Merseyside, can the women make their back street dreams reality, or will the close-knit families be torn apart?

Goodbye Mersey View.. a very enjoyable book! Such realistic descriptions of the devastation London suffered! However this question begs to be asked, Why do authors always feel the need to repeat things over & over .. for example Lily being described as being a force of nature at least three times??......more
