Description

Divided by war. Reunited by courage.
Two sisters, divided by war, face daily battles to save the lives of the wounded soldiers in their care

Phoebe is a VAD at a Base Hospital in taples, France, treating men whove served at the Front. Their courage and resilience inspires her, and though shes meant to keep her distance, Captain Archie Bailey soon captivates her heart.

Her younger sister Celia is a nurse at a POW camp on the island of Jersey. These men fight for the forces that bombed her brother and parents, but long hours spent healing them shows her they arent the monsters she expected.

But despite the differences in their situations, both Celia and Phoebe come to see the commonality in their experiences the sense of community and friendship, the unexpected moments of love and laughter, and a bond so strong that even war cant break it
