After the War (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781844014859)

Beth Briggs and her policeman husband, Danny, lead busy lives, coping with the pressures of work and three children as best they can. but Beth's mother, Daisy, isn't always a ray of sunshine! 'Why are you still working?' is her constant complaint. As a district nurse, Beth is used to dealing with awkward customers (including an escaped piglet), but when her brother, David, gets married to Polly, and little Emily arrives, Daisy becomes unbearable. Polly turns to Beth for help, and then fate intervenes in the form of a health scare for Daisy. Beth and Danny's wedding anniversary approaches. They light the fire, farm the kids out for the night and open a bottle of wine. Romance is in the air - but what exactly is Danny keeping hidden in the garage? In Amanda Renyard's second book, she explores the delicate balancing act of family life, in a homely setting in 1960s Lincolnshire. Times may have changed, but the hazards facing Mums and Dads certainly have not - as After the War convincingly shows.
