Publisher's Synopsis
At the Erith store there is a new temporary manager, and Sarah is getting more than a little concerned by the problems he seems to be creating. The whole mess is enough to make her want to resign. Meanwhile, Ruby is extremely worried about her friend Vera; with illness causing a problem from her past to come flooding back, she knows it's going to take a lot of strength and willpower to do what needs to be done. Then there is Freda, looking forward to the birth of her second child, but sick with worry that her Tony won't return home in time for the baby's arrival, let alone be back to run the Erith store. As the coronation day of the young Queen Elizabeth II approaches, the girls from Woolworths celebrate friendship, family and overcoming anything that life can throw at them...
