The brand new uplifting WW2 saga about a local newspaper in a small Norfolk town, perfect for fans of Nancy Revell and Elaine Everest.

Will she find the strength to start again?

When Jenny Gregory leaves wartime London for the quiet town of Allanby Cross, she feels as though her hopes for the future are slipping away. But an unexpected offer to become the editor for the struggling Allanby Cross Gazette gives her a chance to begin again.

Eager to prove herself, Jenny throws her energy into reviving the paper and finding her place in the community. But when mistakes and mishaps begin to threaten her hard work, she starts to suspect someone wants her to fail.

With the support of new friends, Jenny must hold her nerve and uncover the truth before her chance at a fresh start slips through her fingers...
