Phoebe is a volunteer nurse at a Base Hospital in Étaples, France, treating men who've served on hte Western Front. Their courage and resilience inspires her, and though she's 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 aren't the monsters she expected.

Despite the miles between them, 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 can't break it...
