1854. England is in the grip of a gruesome war. Lucy Harvington, ill-educated beyond how to be a wife, has travelled to the Crimea with her handsome and impetuous officer husband. As the day of battle dawns she can only pray her husband survives. If he doesn't, what will become of her? Dorothea Gray, volunteer nurse at Westminster Hospital, is determined to follow her little sister Lucy to the front and to serve her country alongside her heroine Florence Nightingale and the pioneering nurses already risking their lives. But neither sister could possibly have known the horrors they are about to witness - the courage, the cowardice, the danger - and the excitement. Nor could they have guessed the risks they must take, the passion they will taste, and the simple fact that they may never see one another again.
