"A moving and powerful novel of love, secrets and redemption in a country torn apart by war.
It's 1941 and Kate is living in Rangoon, Burma. A world away from her traditional English upbringing, she is bewitched by the country and the kindness of the Burmese people. When Edwin, a young teacher from London, starts working in the government office with her, a friendship develops between them. But Kate can sense that Edwin has secrets and is looking for a place to call home - something she shares.
As their bond grows, Kate begins to understand Edwin's past and the tragic events that brought them both to Burma. But war is coming and, when the Japanese invade, Kate and Edwin are forced to flee, along with thousands of others. They begin a perilous journey to India but soon become separated. As Kate continues alone, she can't get the troubled young man she has come to care so deeply for out of her head.
With the fallout of war all around them, in a place far from home, will Kate and Edwin survive their journey and find the new beginning they both seek?
The Long Journey Home is the winner of the Wilbur Smith Adventure Writing Prize, Best Unpublished Manuscript Award. Perfect for fans of Kate Furnivall and Dinah Jefferies."
"Three women. Five Kids. One House
Erica knows her suggestion sounds extreme, but when her nanny leaves without notice, she’s desperate. When she and Louise move into Polly’s enormous but run-down house, they must admit that life’s much easier when the childcare and workload are shared.
At first, communal living seems like the answer to all their prayers, but resentment starts to grow as they judge each other’s parenting styles and bicker over cleaning, cooking and whose turn it is to buy toilet roll.
As one woman falls for a handsome colleague, another resorts to spying on her husband, and a third fights to keep a dark secret, they need each other more than ever. But can Polly, Louise and Erica keep their friendships strong, or will their perfect mumtopia fall apart?
A genuinely hilarious debut novel, that's perfect for fans of Marion Keyes, Fiona Gibson, and Sophie Kinsella.
Kathleen Whyman is a bestselling author of humorous women’s fiction. Her work has been shortlisted for the Comedy Women in Print prize."
