Product Description
It is 1940 and bombs are falling on London. Watching from her attic window, Charlotte sees enemy planes coming in over the city, and her neighbours' homes turn to rubble. Still grieving her beloved brother who never returned from France, Charlotte has moved away from her overbearing father and built a new life for herself. She works as a typist for the Ministry of Information, rents a room on the top floor of Mrs Callaghan's ramshackle house, and shares gin and confidences with her best friend, Elena.
Every day brings new scenes of devastation but after another heartbreaking loss Charlotte comes to fear that there is something - or someone - else at work. Who is the shadow man that seems to be following her? Is her mind playing tricks on her again?
As Charlotte begins to hear the voices of her lost friends, her nerves become increasingly fraught. Soon she finds herself taken back to Summer Fields, a place in which she has a painful history and no clear means of escape...
Riveting, heart-stopping and moving, The Midnight News is the unforgettable new novel from Jo Baker, bestselling author of Longbourn.
