About this listen

Random House presents the audiobook edition of The Waiting Hours by Ellie Dean, read by Julie Maisey.

Slapton Sands, 1943. War has not been kind to Carol Porter. It took her husband and baby, and with them her heart. At last she's found some peace, working as a land girl at Coombe Farm. But Carol's sanctuary, the whole local area in fact, is about to be disrupted.

When Pauline Reilly hears Carol's news she's worried for her little sister. But as rumours about Slapton Sands reach Cliffehaven, Pauline can't help be more concerned for her only surviving son. And despite her sister-in-law Peggy's best efforts, nothing soothes Pauline's fears.

As Carol prepares to face the impending upheaval alone her beloved mother, Dolly, swoops in to Slapton, and packing up Carol's life presents unexpected opportunities for them both: Carol looks to her future while Dolly confronts a ghost from her past, and they both have a chance to mend their broken hearts.

Mixed bag

It was interesting to read about Operation Tiger, which I knew nothing about, and i do like the new character of Carol. I do think this book should have been released in chronological order--the time jump back to 1943 was confusing. The ending was too tidy:suddenly everything is fine and dandy. As for narration, I usually really like this narrator, but I really hated the voice she CV chose for Felix--didnt make sense as an American accent. He sounds like a hick instead of an important general.

A bit confusing

While, events were tied together eventually with the previous book one is made to wonder if they were out of order. Otherwise another good story.
