About this title: Focuses on the lives and fortunes of four young women at the outbreak of the Second World War. Marjorie, left at a boarding school by her emigrating mother; plain Poppy, pushed into marriage with a mean-spirited aristocrat; Kate, despised by her father, but determined to prove herself; and man-mad Lily, who turns out to be the bravest of them all.

"This book started out promising. I found Poppy's story very intriguing. However, I found the subsequent characters were less interesting. As the story progressed, I became detached and found myself losing interest and not following the story. I finished the book, but didn't get much out of it."
"Several young women are selected, in the early 1940s, to work in Eden House, for undercover espionate as war is declared in the UK.
Exciting, fast paced, presumably accurate in many respects albeit fiction. I didn't find any of the characters particularly sympathetic, but perhaps that's because too many are followed. Still, quite a page-turner - tense, giving insights into undercover life during World War II."
