Om forfatteren
Lilly Robbins grew up in Scotland, and has lived in London, Stockport and Ireland. Whilst living and teaching in Stockport - her husband's hometown - she became fascinated by its WW2 history and the famous Stockport Air Raid shelters. During her recent research she discovered how Stockport had hosted the Guernsey Evacuee families, and the idea for 'The Nightingales in Mersey Square' was born.
