Betsy's War

In this gritty saga set in Liverpool, comes a heartfelt story of new love and hope in times of war from the acclaimed author of Angel of Liverpool.

A wartime secret . . .

In Liverpool as the War rages, Betsy Drew’s life changes when Alvis Dooley finally takes notice of her . . .

But when bombs hit the Mill Road Maternity Hospital just after Betsy gives birth, her mother sees an opportunity to give everyone a second chance. She tells a devastating lie – that Betsy’s baby is gone.

Years later, Betsy falls for a handsome RAF pilot, James, and it seems that love can conquer their differences, despite the secret Betsy is keeping. And while her mother and the nuns at the orphanage thought they were doing the best for Betsy by giving away her child, that lie could be the very thing that destroys her . . .

Betsy's War is the third book by Eliza Morton in the Liverpool Orphans trilogy, following from The Orphans of Liverpool Lane and The Children Left Behind.
