Review
'Those who love Helen Forrester will adore Baker's work...Baker weaves delicious tales of love, life and hardship in her home town of Liverpool...A heartwarming story, ECHOES ACROSS THE MERSEY is the type of distinctly English book best read when sitting in the garden' -- Liverpool Echo
Product Description
It's August 1914, and the threat of war weighs heavily on the people of Liverpool, but not on Sarah Hoxton. For Toby Percival, the son of her employer, is in love with her. Her mother fears they'll both lose their jobs when Toby's father finds out, but Sarah's prepared to risk everything for Toby's love. Maurice Percival is furious when he discovers his son is involved with a factory girl. Determined to defy his father, Toby joins the army. Sarah is left facing what seem to be insurmountable obstacles, but with the help of her friends, family and a strength she never knew she possessed, she discovers there is a light at the end of the tunnel, though it shines from a different direction to the one she expected.

A great War Time Story, Sep 10 2008
By Bronwyn Rykiert - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Echoes Across the Mersey (Paperback)
I have loved every Anne Baker book that I read or listened to so far and this one did not disappoint either.The story runs from 1914 to 1919. It is the story of Sarah Hoxton and her life and loves. There are letters exchanged from the front line by Sarah and her husband Toby which I thought were really good and gave an idea of what life was in WWI. There are joys and sadness in this story but it is well told from start to finish.
Enjoy.
