'None Stood Taller The Final Year' is the second in the 'None Stood Taller' series.Step back once again into Britain’s wartime past. Relive the final year of WW2 and this inspirational story of courage, life and love - the greatest love story of World War Two.Lily and Edward are two people united by the war but separated by the social divide that stands between them. The story continues from June 6th 1944, as we follow the lives of Lily and her two great friends, Fiona and Dotty. The sun has finally set upon one of the most momentous events in British history. For Lily Heywood and Edward, Lord Middlebourne, D-Day marked the culmination of three years of intensive research and ultimately crushing responsibility. SOE Station M has completed its work. This might have signalled the end of the intelligence unit’s wartime involvement. Events, however, conspire otherwise. Hitler’s vengeance weapons prove to be a threat worthy of Station M’s special skills. This is the world that shapes their lives. Lily knows she can only commit to one of the two men in her life, her future remains as uncertain as ever. When a V1 flying bomb leaves Edward critically injured, only destiny can decide her future. A part of that future was waiting on a launch ramp in the Pas-de-Calais. Once more, destiny decides when the bringer of death will strike at Lily’s heart. From the depths of despair, she is offered a new future from beyond the grave. The final year proves to be the longest of the war for Lily. When it was finally over, the people of Great Britain came together with the greatest outpouring of emotion the nation has ever seen. May the 8th 1945 is the day that changes Lily’s life forever.The third book in the series 'None Stood Taller The Price of Freedom' follows Dotty’s wartime experiences over the same period of time as, with Lily’s support, she grows in stature from being a member of the Women’s Land Army to a brave agent of the Special Operations Executive, or SOE.
