Baking Cakes for Winston Churchill: A novel Kindle Edition


England, 1943. Eighteen year-old Jen is desperate to do anything she can to help the war effort. She trains as a WAAF, but her capability and drive lead her to be picked for a top secret mission as a Baker Street Irregular, a spy with SOE. In the coastal English village of Tyneham, eighteen year-old Jack is desperate to do anything he can to help the war effort, too. When the village is occupied by the British Army, Jack seizes his chance for glory, but then he encounters Jen. Forty years later, City high-flyer Alexis meets three veiled women at her mother’s funeral who want to know what happened to her mother during the war. Alexis knows nothing, but when she scatters Jen’s ashes amongst the ruins of Tyneham, as requested, she meets Aidan, a loner who’s preoccupied with the continued occupation of Tyneham. When Aidan enters the live firing range, his preoccupation becomes deadly. Baking Cakes For Winston Churchill is a journey in three parts: Jen’s journey from naive but plucky eighteen-year-old to secret war hero, risking her life with a grenade in her pocket; Jack’s conversion from rebellious eighteen-year-old to peace campaigner; and Alexis’s transformation from downtrodden to triumphant and courageous woman in search of the truth.
