The brand new series, perfect for fans of DOWNTON ABBEY, from the
author of the hugely successful MORLAND DYNASTY novels . . .
1919: The war is over, but peace is yet to come. As men are demobbed,
women must give up positions that gave them freedom.
Edward is given an important job at the Peace Conference in Paris, but
it means more lonely months away from Beattie and his hoped-for
reconciliation. Fred's unit is sent to the Rhine, and Cook feels a
guilty relief that her uprooting has been postponed. Laura's friend
Ransley volunteers for a further six months, and rather than go home,
Laura finds a new outlet: conducting guided tours of the battlefields.
In England there are strikes and unrest, hardship and widespread
unemployment, and everywhere the sight of the wounded to remind the
nation of what it has paid for peace. But as the first, difficult year
post-war comes to an end, there are great changes afoot for the Hunter
household, wonderful surprises, and the promise of a new start.
Pack Up Your Troubles is the sixth and final book in the War at
Home series by Cynthia Harrod-Eagles, author of the much-loved Morland
Dynasty novels. Set against the real events of 1919, at home and on the
front, this concludes the vivid and rich family drama featuring the
Hunter family and their servants.
