Sisters, beauty and wartime London

Lily-Josephine is a beautifully written and captivating story of three sisters who were once the toast of wartime London. This book would be a perfect read for anyone who enjoys historical fiction, complex family relationships, and vivid characters. Saunders does an excellent job of immersing the reader in the time period, with detailed descriptions and historical accuracy. The most unique feature of this book is the portrayal of the relationship between the sisters, which is at times heart-warming and at times heart-breaking, but is always authentic and relatable.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Lily-Josephine had a talent for love. Wilful, enchanting and passionate, she was the centre of a charmed universe - until her foolish, indulgent father married again.Like Snow-Drop in Grimms' fairy tale, Lily ran from her jealous stepmother one idyllic summer evening in 1941. She escaped to find sanctuary but, at Randalls, discovered a love far greater than any she had ever known...A generation later, the events set in train that night begin to unravel when Sophie Gently falls in love with Octavius Randall and the bizarre and tragic history linking their families is uncovered. Not until ancient passions and betrayals have been confronted can Lily-Josephine - long gone, but never forgotten - truly be laid to rest.
