Publisher's summary

Maureen Jackson knew life as a trainee nurse wouldn't be easy, but she didn't expect her hospital to be badly bombed on her first shift. Plus Maureen still has her family and friends in Mulberry Lane to keep her busy - she's needed as much there as she is by her patients. 

Running the pub on the corner of Mulberry Lane, Peggy Ashley is used to taking in all sorts of waifs and strays. But the arrival of a dashing American captain has got tongues wagging about Mulberry Lane's favourite landlady....

Janet Ashley's husband is back from the front line. Which is more than so many of the wives of Mulberry Lane. But her beloved Mike is a completely different man from the one she fell in love with - and what's more he doesn't remember her or their young daughter. How do you cope when your darling husband is a virtual stranger? 

As WW2 continues around them, the women of Mulberry Lane know that community spirit and friendship are the key to surviving the Blitz.

Good story but narration... Not so much

Preferred the first book, storywise and narration. This narrator uses lengthy pauses & over does the cockney accent & kids voices (it sounds hammed up). Also, not much differentiation between character voices so is easy to lose track of which person is speaking.
Sorry

Unpleasant accents

I bought this book because I enjoyed book 1 of the series and wanted to hear what happened next. It isn't the same narrator, and I understand the voices will be different, but in my opinion, most of the characters have very odd, unpleasant accents. I like a good English accent as much as anyone, but these are not enjoyable to listen to at all. And the American accent was painful as well!

I don't think the story line is quite as interesting as the first book, but it's still okay.

Great story, poor narration

I enjoyed this, the second book in the Mulberry Lane series. However, it was somewhat spoiled by the poor narration. I really wish Audible would use the same narrators for a series of books like this. There was a lot of either pausing in the wrong places, or no pausing where there should have been, and this made things a bit confusing at times. Also, quite a number of words seemed to be mispronounced, leaving the listener to try to figure out exactly what was meant. And Janet's husband is called Mike, not 'Mark.'
I also had an issue with some of the voices. It sounded like one of the nurses spoke with a lisp at times, which made her sound childish.
I'm sorry if this sounds like quite a harsh criticism, but it spoilt the story overall for me. And I'm now regretting purchasing the next two books in the series because they have the same narrator.

Disappointing Narration

I enjoyed the first book in this series but sadly this was a different narrator who hadn’t researched the series as a whole and so some of the voices were wrong (too upper or lower class) and the narrator obviously hadn’t read the first book. The narrator also had some odd inflections from time to time which was distracting. It’s a shame as the story was good and I shall plough through the remainder of the series despite the reader.

Lovely story

A story you can really sink into immediately, although it took a bit of time to get back into the characters as the narrator is different from book 1 & had a very different style for each one.

8th October 2022. Great narration, Well read👍

Absolutely brilliant narration Laura Kirkman, great job.👍
This story had me in tears it is so poignant!.😭
especially at one point. we think about people dying in the war,but don't really think
about what they went through. Brilliant research, you really put alot about the war in.🤕😷.

By the way , Rory kept calling Maureen Molly, I didn't think that
was a short or pet name for Maureen, unless it was proof that he was a womaniser.
Brilliant book Rosie, well written.

Great series

Just a shame you feel the need to change the characters voice accent Ryan spoke with a well educated voice in the previous book now he’s a cockney ?? On a while it’s a good series ….

Another...

lovely story with some great antics from the characters from the previous book. The narrator was very good at using different voices for the characters.
