The Wartime Sisters: A Novel

Audible Audiobook (Macmillan Audio Jan. 22, 2019)

This program includes a bonus conversation with the authors, Alyson Richman and Lauren Willig.

The next powerful audiobook from the author of The Two-Family House, about two sisters working in a WWII armory, each with a deep secret.

Two estranged sisters, raised in Brooklyn and each burdened with her own shocking secret, are reunited at the Springfield Armory in the early days of WWII. While one sister lives in relative ease on the bucolic armory campus as an officer's wife, the other arrives as a war widow and takes a position in the armory factories as a "soldier of production". Resentment festers between the two, and secrets are shattered when a mysterious figure from the past reemerges in their lives.
