As Britain stands alone against a monstrous enemy, the inhabitants of Pearl Street face hardship and heartbreak with courage and humour. The war touches each of them in a different way: for Annie Poulson, a widow, it means never-ending worry when her twin boys are called up and sent to France; Sheila Reilly's husband, Cal, faces the terror of U- Boat attack; Eileen Costello is liberated from a bitter, loveless marriage when her husband is sent to Egypt and she goes to work in a munitions factory - and falls in love. And Jessica Fleming, down on her luck, is forced to return to the street she'd hoped never to see again. Set against the powerful, poignant backdrop of a nation at war, LIGHTS OUT LIVERPOOL is an inspiring drama of families torn apart by war - and united by courage.
I really enjoyed this book and came to care about the characters ,but I was disappointed by the ending which left the reader not knowing what happened . I was surprised when the book suddenly ended.
