A stirring saga of a nurse who only wants to do her duty in World
War Two - and who ends up having to make an agonising choice. Set
in Ireland and Birmingham, this is the latest from emerging star of
the genre Anne Bennett. Carmel Duffy is the eldest child of a
brutal and abusive marriage, and she can't wait to leave home.
She's equally determined to have no husband or children of her own
- what she wants more than anything is to be a nurse. As soon as
she turns eighteen, she heads for Birmingham and begins her
training. With her beautiful auburn curls, she draws plenty of
attention and her resolve to concentrate on her career is tested
when Dr Paul Connolly comes onto her ward and into her life.
Gradually he wins her heart, and they agree to marry, both certain
that they want no children. They have valuable jobs to do - all the
more so when World War Two looms. But those years will change
everything: their relationship, their priorities, their very
characters. Carmel will find that the future is very different to
the one she thought she wanted for so long...
