East End Jubilee by Carol Rivers

Carol Rivers . Unknown Year . English

June 2nd, 1953. The residents of Ruby Street in London's East End are celebrating the new Queen's coronation. It's a day of joy of laughter, a new beginning for a nation still in the grip of rationing, still suffering the aftermath of the Blitz. But for Rose Weaver, the day ends in tragedy when her husband Eddie is arrested on suspicion of theft. It's only the first of several shocks as Rose discovers some unpleasant facts about the man she married eight years before, the man she thought she knew so well. Struggling to provide for herself and her two daughters, Rose realizes that she'll need the help of family, friends, and the good neighbours of Ruby Street if she's to have any chance of pulling through. And when a handsome salesman knocks at her door, it's hard to resist temptation . . .

About the Author

My family was born on the Isle of Dogs, a horseshoe of land on London's Thames estuary that was once a huge shipbuilding and engineering powerhouse, though it's better known now as the setting for BBC1's hit drama Eastenders. As a child I would listen to the adults spinning their colourful tales of far off times and it was this magic of story telling that set me writing. You'll find much more info on my blog and a brief description of all my books, including my most recently published sagas by the wonderful Joffe Books. Do check out https://www.carolrivers.com
