'A moving and bittersweet story' Sun

Keeping My Sisters Secrets by Beezy Marsh is the heartwarming true story of three sisters and their fearless fight to survive the hardships of poverty and war - by whatever means necessary.

Born into a close-knit working class family in the slums of Londons Waterloo, Eva, Peggy and Kathleen are three remarkably different, but very loving sisters. Desperate to escape their violent father, they find different ways to survive.

Beautiful Kathleen escapes into marriage with an abusive man, and during the horrors of the Second World War, falls in love again - this time with an American GI. Peggy, serious and studious, is appalled by conditions in the factories and becomes a communist, desperate to help her fellow workers. The rebellious sister, Eva, will do anything to protect her family - even if it means breaking the law to put dinner on the table.

Living closely together, the sisters support each other through thick and thin - their story is a moving tale of unconditional love, the one constant in a changing world.

About Beezy Marsh

Beezy Marsh is an award-winning journalist who has spent more than twenty years making the headlines in newspapers including Daily Mail and The Sunday Times. This was never going to be enough for a girl from Hartlepool whose primary school teacher told her to give up her dream of becoming a poet and concentrate on being a nurse instead. Thirty years later give or take she became an author. Family and relationships are at the heart of her writing and she is a firm believer that sisters mothers and wives are the glue which binds everything together. She writes romantic fiction as well as memoir and biography and somehow finds time to write a blog about her life as an imperfect mother to two young boys in between tackling a never-ending pile of laundry and doing the school run. She is the author of Mad Frank and Family.
