New Horizons for the Woolworths Girls is the emotional and hopeful finale to the beloved Woolworths Girls series by bestselling author Elaine Everest.

There are fresh challenges and new beginnings on the horizon for the girls at Woolworths . . .


When the Bexleyheath branch of F. W. Woolworths is bombed, Annie must help save her fellow staff members. Thankfully uninjured, she is moved to the Erith store, where she soon finds her feet. But a tragedy close to home is another stark reminder that life can turn on a sixpence.

When Annie meets Dean, an American soldier who promises to care for her and her family, she has more than just the end of the war to celebrate. With wedding bells and a new life in America beckoning, great change lies ahead.

Suitcase in tow, Annie must remember one thing: if she follows her heart, it will always lead her in the right direction.

Elaine Everest, author of bestselling novels The Woolworths Girls, The Butlins Girls, Christmas at Woolworths and The Teashop Girls, was born and brought up in north-west Kent, where many of her books are set. She was a freelance writer for twenty-five years and wrote widely for women’s magazines and national newspapers, both short stories and features. Her non-fiction books for dog owners proved very popular and led to her broadcasting on radio about our four-legged friends. Elaine was also heard discussing many other topics on the airwaves, from her Kent-based novels to life with her husband, Michael. She passed away in 2024.
