But behind the stitches and the steam of the kettle lies a secret—these women are the town’s unofficial guardians of justice. From greyhound scams to family secrets, no “wrong” is too small to be put “right.” Grab a cup of tea and join the circle for Volume Three of their heartwarming adventures.

Will the members be able to provide the boy’s family with the shelter they deserve?

The Station Road Sewing Circle continue to delve into the ‘goings on’ within their town, trying to solve complicated problems to help all in the community. There are good picture portraits of the characters as you immediately have images of real people coming to mind. The topics for the stories, being so different, keep the reader thoroughly engaged throughout. Certainly enough references to the old town of Pembroke to be an added bonus for all those who knew the town in that era.

Being a local of Pembroke this book brought nostalgic memories of how people were in times gone by. The community spirit and sense of belonging mixed with humour and caring for others were all part of daily life. Well written and an enjoyable read. Well done Lou
