Beskrivelse
In 1960 three na ve, but very different, Appley Green schoolgirls pledge to stick together for ever, but when one of them gets pregnant, this pushes their promise to the edge. A young girl in need of love is vulnerable to the charms of a much older man with heart-breaking consequences. This is Great Britain's Sixties, gathering pace then in full swing as social change sweeps aside past attitudes, laws, fashion and culture. Youth is finding a voice as parents struggle to adjust. Miriam Wakerly's Appley Green village stories all standalone and can be read in any order, but they are connected. This one can serve as a prequel to all three, especially Shades of Appley Green. "Secrets in Appley Green is a novel that works because of the sharpness of its observations and the scope of its reach. It has an epic quality ..." ..". the hard-nosed flip side to the 'swinging sixties' narrative." Surrey Life Magazine, taken from review by television presenter, Juliette Foster, January 2016
