For the Love of Willie (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781846977589)

Peggy is turning a dark girlhood romance into a novel and is trying to get her fellow inmate at the mental hospital, known as the Duchess, to read the manuscript. Frankly the duchess would prefer a Mills and Boon, but her friend's wartime tragi-comedy soon gets a grip on her imagination.

For the Love of Willie is a compassionate look at wartime pregnancy and teenage predicaments through the eyes of Peggy, first as a shy sixteen year-old in love and later as an inmate in a psychiatric hospital.

Published to celebrate Agnes Owens' centenary year in 2026.
