The Indomitable Bulldog Spirit
A Wartime Reunion At Goodwill House by Fenella J Miller is the fifth book in a marvelous wartime series.
This book can be read as a stand-alone but I enjoyed meeting up with many familiar faces as we rejoin the action in 1940. We see the stoicism of the characters as the war comes a little too close to Goodwill House.
Dog fights overhead interrupt the lives of those on the ground. It takes much courage to continue with day-to-day lives whilst being ever vigilant for the enemy.
A chance encounter sets hearts a racing as there is a search for the truth of their roots.
Once more we follow the land girls billeted at Goodwill House, as well as the family. There are no airs and graces as all are welcomed and treated as family.
Fenella J Miller writes in such a way that history comes alive for the reader. The British have a strong bulldog spirit as they keep calm and carry on, no matter what life throws at them.
We witness the lengths to which some will go in the pursuit of social climbing. Situations need to be investigated to find the truth.
I adore the Goodwill House series. All the characters are wonderfully drawn. With each new book I feel as if I am meeting up with dear friends. Roll on book six.
I received a free copy from Rachel’s Random Resources. A favourable review was not required. All opinions are my own.
