Girl with Secrets

Carol Rivers
4.12/5 (733 ratings)
From the bestselling author of the Lizzie Flowers series comes a captivating coming-of-age wartime saga about love, loyalties and secrets.

In the turmoil of World War II, can Daisy keep her family together?

1938, Isle of Dogs, East London.

A country girl at heart, nine-year-old Daisy Purbright has enjoyed the endless freedoms of idyllic village life for most of her childhood.

But when her father gambles the family’s fortunes on an ill-advised investment in London’s docklands, Daisy and her family are uprooted from the comforts of the countryside and swept up into the intrigue, danger and excitement of the big city.

The Purbrights desperately want to settle into their new life in the East End, but the whisperings of war grow louder. By September 1940, bombs are raining down on the city as war tightens its grip.

With schools now closed, Daisy listens to the conversations happening around her and quickly learns that adults, as well as children, have secrets.

But the burden is too much to bear alone and Daisy must choose between keeping the peace in her family and setting the truth, and herself, free. Will her family survive the next devastating blow that’s about to come their way?
