**Will new friendships and motherhood keep the Women on the Home Front safe from war?

England, 1939**

When expectant mother Marianne Archer is evacuated from London on the day war is declared, she desperately wants to put her past behind her and will do whatever she can to protect her unborn child.

The villagers of Great Plumstead in Norfolk are preparing to welcome evacuee children into their homes, but their well-made plans are thrown into turmoil by the arrival of a train full of expectant mothers!

While some villagers fear their quiet, countryside community will now be disrupted, others, including sisters Prue and Thea, welcome the expectant mothers with open arms. Marianne quickly finds a warm welcome at Rookery House. But if she risks revealing the whole truth of her situation, will she lose both her safe new home and friends?

The community of Great Plumstead – and the evacuee mothers – each have their own problems to overcome. Can they put their differences aside and support one another while doing their bit for the war effort on the Home Front?

The Mother's Day Club is the perfect wartime family saga, filled with heart-warming friendships, nostalgic community spirit and a courageous make-do-and-mend attitude. Perfect for fans of Ellie Dean, Lizzie Lane and Elaine Everest.
