Product Description

First World War nurse Poppy heals wounded soldiers. But what’s the cure for a broken heart? And in a man’s world, how can Poppy do her bit? Poppy is shattered when she hears that the love of her life, Freddie de Vere, is to marry. She’s got to get away – start over. So she volunteers as a war nurse at a hospital in Flanders. Talk about out of the frying pan, into the fire. The journey is paved with horror. The ward sister is cruel and spiteful. Poppy is lonely and heartsick. Yet as she faces the dangers of war, she finds comfort for her own troubles… A brave young woman on the frontline: no one shows us how that feels quite like Mary Hooper. A master – or should that be mistress? – of the craft.
