Publisher Description

The onset of the Second World War has a devastating effect on the close-knit community of London's Conner Street.

Harry Bowling's Conner Street's War is a poignant and heart-warming saga of a community struggling to survive the dangers of the Blitz. Perfect for fans of Nadine Dorries and Cathy Sharp.


Behind the grimy wharves of London's dockland lies Conner Street, home to a close-knit community where women stand gossiping in doorways, small boys play marbles on the cobbles and the dockers pop down to the Eagle for a quick pint. Corner shops nestle beside the tiny terraced houses and two minutes away is the lively Tower Road market, where it is said, if you can't buy something then it's not made. Once World War Two breaks out, however, life in Conner Street changes dramatically - forever...

What readers are saying about Conner Street's War:

'You need to make time for this book as once you pick it up, you cannot put it down'

'Another winner from Harry. Believable, heart-warming characters, a true and accurate depiction of the people and the times, living through the Blitz. The man's a genius'
