Release day: The Loose Thread

Today is the official release of  The Loose Thread by Liz Harris (paperback and ebook, Heywood Press). Here’s the blurb:
With the threat of WW2 little more than a shadow on the horizon, Rose Hammond marries Tom Benest, whom she hardly knows, and leaves London to go to live with Tom on his family’s farm in Jersey. There she’s welcomed by his parents as she attempts to adjust to her new life, but meets with open hostility from Tom’s sister, Kathleen.
Less than two years later, the lives of the family are turned upside down when Jersey is cut loose from British protection. The Germans move in and seize control of the island, forcing the islanders into a perilous situation that will test their endurance and resourcefulness.
As the occupation tightens its grip on life on the island, Tom and Rose are torn apart in a situation of unimaginable heartbreak, which calls for the greatest of courage, and a powerful determination to survive.
Liz dropped by today to tell us a little about this book:
Set during World War 2, The Loose Thread is the first of three standalone novels in the Three Sisters series, each of which tells the story of one of the Hammond girls. The Loose Thread is Rose’s story. Much of it is set in Jersey, the largest of the Channel Islands. During World War 2, the islands were invaded and occupied for five years by Nazi Germany, the only part of British territory ever to be ruled by the Germans.
