Sing As We Go Margaret Dickinson

Kathy Burton longs to escape the drudgery of her life as an unpaid labourer on her father's farm in Lincolnshire. Yearning for a brighter future, she spurns a marriage proposal and moves to the city, where she finds employment in a glamorous department store. There, she falls deeply and irrevocably in love with the sophisticated floor manager, Tony Kendall. Their relationship is immediately complicated by the devious and possessive nature of Tony's invalid mother, Beatrice Kendall, who vows Kathy will never marry her son. Despite the country being plunged into war, Kathy plans her wedding, but the day is ruined when Tony is called up to serve. Feeling deserted and forced to face further heartache and shame alone, Kathy eventually finds solace by joining a concert party to entertain service men and women and war workers. This novel is a heart-rending wartime saga of hardship and resilience.
