About this listen

From the author of the Sunday Times bestseller Dear Mrs Bird, Dear Miss Lake returns us to Blitz-era London where Emmy Lake is facing her greatest challenge yet . . .

London, July 1944. Editor Emmy Lake's career is soaring: Woman's Friend magazine is a huge success, and she is finally realizing her dream of becoming a Lady War Correspondent. On the personal front, Emmy's husband Charles has been posted closer to home, and her good friends Bunty and Harold are planning their summer wedding in the countryside. They all know how lucky they are.

But after nearly five years of war, the nation is struggling. The "Yours Cheerfully" advice column receives more letters than ever, and even though it looks like the war might finally be over by Christmas, the situation is far from resolved. For Emmy and her team, it’s all about pulling together and pushing on. But then disaster strikes. Soon Emmy finds herself facing her greatest battle yet. Now she needs her friends more than ever . . .

Endearing, engaging, and full of heart, Dear Miss Lake is a testament to the power of friendship in the hardest of times.
