Summary

April 1942. Enemy gunfire on Penzance beach brings the Cornish Girls rushing to the rescue....

Yearning for adventure, Demelza dreams of one day joining the fire wardens. But before she can do so, gunfire during a trip to the beach provides her with an unexpected opportunity to get stuck in.

On hand to help the wounded beachgoers, Lily draws admiration with her nursing skills and is offered an exciting new position in the hospital in Penzance.

And swayed by her niece, Lily’s Aunt Violet agrees to take in three evacuees rescued on the beach, though they turn out to be more of a handful than she bargained for.

But even as the war rages around them, the biggest challenge facing each woman turns out to be one of the heart. Can the Cornish Girls help one another to open themselves up to love...?

It’s great to catch up with the girls again

A beautiful addition to this series of books about the Cornish girls, and once again beautifully written. It’s really good to catch up with all of the characters again, however, I’m slightly disappointed by the narration of the story. The Narrator’s voice does not match the portrayal characters as portrayed by the original narrator of these books. I’m also slightly disappointed by her interpretation of the characters. I feel she probably is best suited to reading Enid Blyton the stories to 5-year-olds, rather than a dramatic story of war torn Cornwall life and relationships.
