    About this audiobook

    It's the final year of training for three young nurses at The Nightingale Hospital. Helen is at a crossroads in her life as she battles with her domineering mother over both her love life and her future career. Dora can't stop loving Nick, who is married to her best friend, Ruby. Millie is anxious about her fiancé, sent to Spain to cover the Civil War, and things only get worse when she encounters a fortune teller who gives her a sinister warning.

    With war looming in Europe, and the East End of London squaring up to the threat of Oswald Mosley's blackshirts, the women of the Nightingale have to face their own challenges, at work and in love.

    • 5/5
      I think the story of nurse training was well done.
    • 4/5
      I have very much enjoyed the three books I have read so far. However I am confused and disappointed about two things in this one. 1: In book two, Joe Armstrong is introduced as a kind man. In book three he is very different, a detestable man. Even his voice is different. 2: no mention of Joe’s sister, Jenny.
