ON THE EVE OF WAR, CAN SHE AND HER FAMILY PULL THROUGH?

The Adams family were poor, cheerful and, above all, respectable.

There was Mrs Adams, a widow having lost her husband in the Boer War; Boots, the bright one; Tommy, the quiet one; Sammy, a wheeler dealer in the making; and Lizzy. Lizzy was a real pearl - one of the prettiest girls in Walworth.

When Lizzy falls in love it is 1914. War is coming and everyone is going to be affected. Will the Adams family - gutsy, tough and cheeky - pull through?

Down Lambeth Way is the first in Mary Jane Staples's Adams Family series. Their story continues in Our Emily.
