The scenes and details of Dr Barnardo’s are especially interesting as the plight of orphans is rarely considered when we think of World War Two … We often forget the ordinary people surviving day-to-day ‘back home’.’ Discovering Diamonds BlogMolly Green is a seasoned author of fiction and non-fiction. She has sold lipstick in a Denver store, modelled in Atlanta, assisted the UN NarcoticsDirector in Geneva, chauffeured a Swiss Gnome in Zurich, assisted a famous film producer in the UK, and cooked in a sanatorium in Germany. She now lives and writes in Tunbridge Wells, Kent.• Molly Green’s saga books are up there with the very best: her stories are meticulously researched and the pages are packed with love and loss – but most importantly, they follow heroines who are strong and ambitious despite the challenges they face.• In this new series, we follow three sisters – a pilot, jazz singer and dock worker – who each feel their place is not at home and are determined to use their skills to assist the war effort and prove themselves up to the job in hand.• This is the second book in the Victory Sisters series, which follows three sisters – a pilot, jazz singer and dock worker – who each feel their place is not at home and are determined to use their skills to assist the war effort and prove themselves up to the job in hand.• The focus of this book is Suzanne – the middle sister, who is musically talented and her one great wish is to form an all-women orchestra one day. Her dreams crumble when the war breaks out, and whilst she is determined to do her bit for the war effort, she can’t bear the idea of giving up her music.Suzanne joins a swing band who are members of ENSA (Entertainment National Service Association, dubbed Every Night Something Awful!) to entertain the troops in some of the worst-hit cities in GB. It’s a tale of courage, love, loss and camaraderie, showing how music has the power to shine a light in every the darkest of days.• We have sold over 100,000 units of the first trilogy, and so we quite rightly have high aspirations that this brand will continue to grow with the next three books.
