Lily Baker #4
The Blackout Girls
A country at war. Friends in trouble. Lily may be off the bomb-blasted streets, but the danger's not over… England, 1941. Reunited briefly with her husband-to-be before he returns to fighting, Lily Baker now finds her mundane army office work dreary. But when her boss asks her to keep watch on the happenings at the depot, she quickly suspects a new weapons supplier of fraud.
As she trains her sharp eye on the potential cheat, she agrees to help an unmarried colleague with an unexpected pregnancy. But when, without evidence, Lily is accused of being the one with child, she faces hard decisions.
Suspecting a traitor in their midst, can she uncover a conspiracy while also protecting herself?
The captivating fourth book in The Lily Baker Series. If you like well-written characters, pulse-stopping drama, and thrilling twists and turns, then you’ll adore this compelling adventure.

This is a terrific addition to the series. It gives excellent insights into the lives of working-class women in London during World War II. Some of the issues are unique to wartime England but many are issues that women struggle with now...domestic abuse, unplanned pregnancy, and abandonment. This book continued with the lives of Lily and Bronwyn, my favorite of her ATS friends. I look forward to reading about whatever comes next when the new book is released at the end of June.
