About the Book
Wanting to "make a difference," young Iris Amory joins the Red Cross as a nurse and finds herself serving in a hospital over in France during World War I.

Iris gets her heart broken open -- once or twice (at least) -- by it all and is transformed by the horror around her, becoming a strong, compassionate woman and an inspiration to Dawn Kailey, the young journalist she tells her story to.

 

Reviews
"[T]his book, like similarly powerful novels set in dark moments of history, ultimately conveys a story of hope, love, and inspiration. ...I feel uplifted. Skillfully written, peopled with memorable characters, and driven by larger-than-life events, this is a book I both enjoyed and admired."
- -- Joni B. Cole, TOXIC FEEDBACK
"A tale of peace and war, life and death, passion and despair, love and loss. Mostly, it is a timeless story of survival and hope that transcends generations. This is a work of fine art turned into a masterpiece."
- Alina Oswald, JOURNEYS THROUGH DARKNESS
"The novel is rich and poignant, sparing nothing of the gruesome reality of war at its most horrific....Iris stays with me. Long after the last page was turned, I sensed her spirit close, a sign of great writing in my opinion."
- Rita Reynolds, BLESSING THE BRIDGE
