Secrets for the Three Sisters

Winner of the 2025 RNA Romantic Saga Award!

The heartwarming new novel from the author of The District Nurses of Victory Walk.

It’s autumn 1940 and the Blitz has cast its shadow over London. Everyone is doing their bit to help, including the three Harrison sisters of the East End’s Victory Walk.
Nurse Rose is snowed under in the hospital tending to victims of the bombings. Her sister Clover is on active duty on the south coast, while the baby of the family, Daisy, is growing up quickly working on the London Underground, now that thousands of people are taking shelter down below.
Even in wartime, the sisters find time for a wedding, but the bride is keeping a secret, which threatens to come to light. Can the three sisters stick together, for each other, and for King and Country?

About the author

Annie Groves was originally created by the much-loved writer Penny Halsall, who died in 2011. The stories drew on her own family’s history, picked up from listening to her grandmother’s stories when she was a child.

Linda Finlay is the author of many historical novels, and she has always loved crafting stories about brave women who have broken the mould. She is delighted to continue the Annie Groves legacy and to create new stories to inspire the next generation of heroines.
