A gripping coming-of-age drama about life and love on the wards of a pre-war London hospital. * Weightwatchers Magazine *A touching novel…reminiscent of Call The Midwife * Star Magazine *Excellent characters…absorbing story…I look forward to the next instalment in the lives of these interesting women. * Bookersatz *Fans of Call the Midwife will enjoy this * Woman’s Own *
