Dark Days for the Tobacco Girls: A gritty heartbreaking saga from Lizzie Lane

Written by Lizzie Lane

Narrated by Anne Dover

Nothing will stop the Tobacco Girls not even war...

BRISTOL 1940.

The Tobacco Girls cling together as they realise that the clouds of war are turning dark, the world is becoming more dangerous and their lives more unpredictable.

Bridget Milligan’s big, happy family fragments when her siblings are evacuated to North Devon, then a letter from America further fills her with dismay.

Maisie Miles' safe haven from both Eddie Bridgeman and her father is jeopardised and she is forced to move on, but where to this time?

Phyllis Mason is struck down by tragedy and her life spirals downwards into despair until a new horizon beckons, but also perhaps great danger...

Regardless of the rationing, shortages and an ever-worsening situation, the Tobacco Girls all pull together and hope for better days to come.
