The Kingston Sisters; Before the War: A WWII Historical Fiction prequel novelette (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798197640390)

A heartwarming prequel to Deb Stratas' beloved Kingston Sisters series

London, 1938. The air is filled with the warmth of autumn - and the uneasy whispers of another war. In the snug Kingston household, life carries on much as it always has: Walter manages his accounting firm, Alice keeps the family steady, and their daughters-practical Maggie, romantic Tillie, and spirited Katie-fill the house with laughter, dreams, and a touch of mischief. Fifteen-year-old Kenny, their cheeky brother, keeps everyone on their toes.

But beyond the glow of the supper table, the world is shifting. Gas masks are being issued, sirens are being tested in Hyde Park, and even a simple birthday feels tinged with uncertainty. As love, ambition, and secrets stir among the sisters, the Kingstons face the final golden months of peace-when every choice seems to matter just a little more.

Before the War is a tender and nostalgic tale of family, courage, and coming of age on the eve of World War II-the ideal prequel for The War Twins of London, A Burning London Sky, and The Code Girl from London.
