Nothing is ever easy on Blackberry Farm!
Cambridgeshire 1944
Pam Talbot dedicates her life to keeping those who live and work at Blackberry Farm fed, safe and sound as Artie holds the fort whilst brothers Tom and John are away on national service.
Still reeling from the death of her beloved husband Arthur, Pam makes a rash decision in Arties s favour which backfires causing him to neglect his duty on the Farm. Now Artie is struggling to run two farms and to add to his woes a new land girl sets her sights on him and won t take no for an answer.
John is transferred to convalesce in Sussex but is struggling to come to terms with his life changing injuries and new life. Can Sister Jane help him find peace and see a brighter future?
Tom, still on active duty, is ordered undercover in his army unit to discover a traitor. Tom s life hangs in the balance if his secret mission is exposed. Can Tom find the traitor and be granted the honourable discharge he so craves?
The Talbot s are never far from trouble and tragedy maybe their luck is about to change or maybe not...

Praise for Rosie Clarke:
'From tears to smiles. This book in fact the whole series had it all even emotion known. I had to read them back to back as Rosie Clarke books don't read so well in bits. I love her books.' - Reader Review
'In totally in love with all the characters in BlackBerry farm, I can't wait for the third instalment, hope it's not too long to wait, I love the way you describe your characters. Thank you' - Reader Review
'Again Rosie Clarke has written another fabulous addition to this superb series. As like the previous books I came completely absorbed in the characters and the story from the first page. This is one of my absolute favourite war time saga series. It can be read as a standalone but I highly recommend reading the other two books in this delightful series. - Reader Review
'Speechless. Why am I surprised at another great book, with unpredictable storylines from Rosie CLARKE. Just as good as the Harpers and Mulberry Lane Series' - Reader Review
'What a brilliant book, I couldn't put it down.' - Reader Review
'Just as good and Mulberry Lane. Thankful that I have another Rosie Clarke boxset to read. Equally as good and a page turner. Can't wait to read the next one.' - Reader Review
'Gripping. Once I started reading this I found it hard to put down.' - Reader Review
'A fantastic read and cannot wait for the next instalment about BlackBerry Farm.' - Reader Review
'5.0 out of 5 stars plenty of action and well drawn characters in this opening to a new series. I loved this opening book in a new historical saga series and was quickly interested in the different family members who are introduced' - Reader Review
Full of people whose lives intertwine, love, loss, heartbreak and strong wills, highly recommend it' - Reader Review
'Great read. I was born during WW2 and it brings back a lot of memories. Can't wait for the next book Rosie Clarke is a great writer.'- Reader Review
