Description

Set against the turmoil of World War II, this powerful historical novel follows two Army nurses serving on opposite sides of the globe—one confronting the brutality of a Japanese prison camp and the other caring for the wounded amid the fighting in Europe. As their stories unfold, both women are tested by unimaginable danger, deprivation, and moral uncertainty. Their courage reveals the often-overlooked sacrifices of wartime nurses while exploring resilience, friendship, faith, and the bonds that sustain people through trauma. Vivid and deeply human, the novel offers a moving portrait of women whose service placed them at the heart of history.
