Description
A stirring and inspiring story perfect for fans of Nadine Dorries and Call The Midwife
Heartbroken but determined, Maud Linklater returns to her hometown of Liverpool intent on healing the sick and building a new life for herself and her son, Alfie
Liverpool 1872
After spending time training at the Infirmary for Women in New York, Maud can't wait to put her new-found skills to the test. But in a city built and run by men she must work hard to be accepted.
Whilst her nurse friends welcome her back with open arms there are others who do not wish her well, including the spiteful Nancy Sellers.
Nancy resented Maud's talents as a nurse and seeing her arrive back with such fanfare puts her nose firmly out of joint. She will stop at nothing to sabotage Maud's life and soon turns her attention to those Maud holds most dear.
Maud Linklater is made of strong stuff. But as she resettles back into life in her hometown, can she overcome any obstacle Nancy, and Liverpool, might throw her way?

Kate Eastham writes such lovely stories that draw you into the book,the charactors are brilliant and i look forward to the next book from this fabulous author 5*
Another well written story about nurses in Liverpool in the 19th century. Kate Eastham has researched the history of medicine and the role of women in hospitals at that time.
I adore the characters in the series and their personalities have been beautifully developed over the books.
Thanks to Netgalley and Bookouture for allowing me to read this Arc. A beautiful story written by the ever talented Kate Eastham.
A story of love, laughter and many years. Also a story about the lives and work of some fantastic nurses. I would highly recommend it.
