    About this series

    The winds of war bring uncertainty but also opportunity…

    With the outbreak of War, the fishing fleet is confined to port, bringing hardship to the families and businesses of Fishers Wharf.

    Ruth Evans awaits the safe return of her father’s last trawler carrying her wayward brother Henry, the future of the family business. But unbeknown to their father, Henry sees war as a chance to break free from the constraints of his privileged background and follow his heart.

    Much is expected of Ruth. Her marriage to Arthur Marshall will help realise her father’s dream uniting two of the largest trawler companies in Grimsby. But will Ruth choose the path of duty or destiny?

    Ruth’s friendship with hardworking Letty Hardy sustains her. Separated by class, they are united through their work for the Fishermen’s Mission as Letty battles to keep her business and family afloat while husband Alec serves on the minesweepers.

    Can they navigate the treacherous waters ahead – or will they be caught by hidden dangers?

    Praise for Tracy Baines:

    ‘A charming, heart-warming saga about ambition, hard work and courage in the cut and thrust of a world often driven by jealousy and spite’ Rosie Clarke

    ‘Immerse yourself in the exciting, evocative world of Wartime musical theatre. I highly recommend this book’ Fenella Miller

    'Terrific - beautifully written. The book twinkles. A well-crafted and satisfying story' Maisie Thomas

    ‘A pleasure from start to finish’ Glenda Young

    ‘You will have to read this well-researched song and dance of a novel in great gulps as I did’ Annie Clark

    ‘I just loved this book! Molly Walton

    'The Variety Girls is terrific - beautifully written and with an unusual background. The stage costumes twinkle with sequins and the book twinkles with tiny details of theatre life that add depth and atmosphere to this well-crafted and satisfying story' Maisie Thomas

    ‘A pleasure from start to finish’ Glenda Young

    ‘You will have to read this well-researched song and dance of a novel in great gulps as I did’ Milly Adams

    ‘An evocative, busy, entertaining read, which has well balanced touches of humour, vying with angst, and of course, more than a dollop of tension’ Margaret Graham, Frost Magazine

    ‘Characterisation is one of the book’s strong points – the individual characters stay in your mind long after you finish the story’ Barbara Dynes, The Voice

      A Knotty Subject

      Feb 7, 2020

      Many readers will be unaware that, a couple of decades ago, the RYA cruising syllabus still specified the ability to whip a rope’s end in a seamanlike manner. I’m sad to report that this quietly disappeared somewhere around 2003. On the whole, the sy
