To say Felicity (Fliss) Carmichael leads an interesting life is an understatement. First she finds her man Giles in bed with another woman so she seeks comfort at her parents home, St Winifred’s Rectory. When she has an unlikely meeting with Detective Inspector Timothy Wallace little does she realise that she is going to see more of him. Fliss who reports for the Workers Clarion realises she needs to find a new job as she can no longer work alongside Giles. After a couple of no thank yous she gets an interview with Mr Longman at The Chronicle.
Being the only female reporter in the office she usually gets the safe jobs. When there is a some goods disappearing from the docks during air raids Fliss decides to look further herself as she is a staunch supporter of Housewife’s Defence League who rally against spivs and the black market, but is she out of her depth?

I loved that Felicity was such a strong independent woman who stood her ground for things she did/didn’t want.
There are some real villains who I could easily take a dislike to, main one being Harry Gunn. My favourite character was Fliss.
Lots of interesting facts throughout the story. Look forward to more by this author.

As usual Jean Fullerton has nailed it again with another fantastic read! Felicity’s War is a great book, following the story of felicity a vicars daughter who is a modern woman fighting against the system, a member of the Labour Party she will demonstrate for what she believes in. A chance meeting with DI Wallace weaves a wonderful story and a can’t put down book that you want to finish to find out how it ends but also want to savour. Absolutely worth the 5 stars and more ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Another 5 star book from Jean Fullerton. Felicity Carmichael isn’t your typical vicars daughter as she is Labour through and through and a reporter. Alongside the local Detective Tim they seek to rid the East End of criminals and racketeers. A thoroughly believable storyline and characters. Thanks to Jean and her publisher.
