Summary

The start of a new series from bestselling author of The Tobacco Girls, Lizzie Lane.

Bristol 1936

Jenny Crawford has resigned herself to a loveless marriage living hand to mouth with their two children. Like many others, husband Roy struggles to find work at the docks but a chance encounter turns the family's fortunes around.

Not only does he get regular work but they are also allocated a council house on Coronation Close on the outskirts of the city. Jenny and the children are overjoyed, this is the fresh start she could only ever dream of.

But trouble feels never too far away. With Roy spending more time with Sir Oswald Molsey bullying black shirts, Jenny is left to her own devices and eager to fit in begins to make new friends.

Thankful of peace, Jenny has her head turned firstly by an old love and then by her knight in shining armour.

Does she allow herself to glimpse a chance of happiness?

Whatever happens, the consequences could be dire if Roy ever finds out.

Such a delightful book

I love this series, things went on as my nan would say, back in the old days, that you would never have thought of. But humans will always do want they need to, to find happiness of course. Brilliantly written & narrated. Thank you.

Wonderful listen!

The characters were brought to life in a way that you felt like part of their journey. Easy interesting listen, I didn’t find any dull moments & the narrator was excellent! Will be getting book 2 in this series.

A good easy listen

it's hard to believe how much a woman was beholden to her husband back in these days but very interesting to read.

Loved this book

Anne Dover is a brilliant narrator and she always brings her characters to life. Coronation Close is a lovely look back at how life was and I can't wait to hear the next book is this serial, hopefully there will be more than 2.
