Never Enough

Beschreibung

September 1939. Thousands of children are leaving the city and their families behind, heading for the coast and countryside with the launch of Operation Pied Piper. In Tamarisk Bay the Chandler family are preparing for war and all the changes it will bring. Taking in a young evacuee is bound to bring challenges, but within days it is clear there are unexpected obstacles to overcome. Divisions appear in the family and when a crime is committed, doubts creep in, with accusations leading to questions that prove difficult to answer. This range of novellas explores life during World War Two for many of the characters in Isabella Muir's popular Sussex Crime series. Look out for the other novellas in the Sussex Crime series - More than Ashes, Waiting for Sunshine, The Harvest, and Choices - to discover the stories behind the Sussex Crime characters in these heart-warming tales.

Isabella is never happier than when she is immersing herself in the sights, sounds and experiences of the 1960s. Researching all aspects of family life back then formed the perfect launch pad for her works of fiction. Isabella rediscovered her love of writing fiction during two happy years working on and completing her MA in Professional Writing and since then has gone to publish five novels, two novellas and a short story collection. Her first Sussex Crime Mystery series features young librarian and amateur sleuth, Janie Juke. Set in the late 1960s, in the fictional seaside town of Tamarisk Bay, we meet Janie, who looks after the mobile library. She is an avid lover of Agatha Christie stories - in particular Hercule Poirot ? using all she has learned from the Queen of Crime to help solve crimes and mysteries. As well as three novels, there are three novellas in the series, which explore some of the back story to the Tamarisk Bay characters. Her latest novel, Crossing the Line, is the first of a new series of Sussex Crimes, featuring retired Italian detective, Giuseppe Bianchi who arrives in the quiet seaside town of Bexhill-on-Sea, East Sussex, to find a dead body on the beach and so the story begins... Isabella's standalone novel, The Forgotten Children, deals with the emotive subject of the child migrants who were sent to Australia - again focusing on family life in the 1960s, when the child migrant policy was still in force.
