Publisher Description

Three very different girls sign up as trainee nurses at a big London teaching hospital in 1934. Dora leaves her overcrowded, squalid working-class home for a better life. But has she got what it takes to keep up with other, better-educated girls? And will her hated stepfather ever let her go? Helen is born for the job; her brother is a doctor, her all-powerful mother a hospital trustee. But will Helen's secret misery be her downfall? An aristocratic rebel, Millie's carefree attitude will find her up in front of Matron again and again. Will she ever care enough to make a nurse? Or will she go back to the glamorous life she was born to? What have they let themselves in for?

"I loved this book from start to finish. At times I thought I was in the wards with them as there done their training. Nurses did work alot harder in those days. I now cant wait to read the follow up and see how there manage being Staff Nurses."

    " The book follows 3 girls on their bid to become nurses. They share a room and come from totally different backgrounds. I was delighted to read here that this is the first in a planned trilogy- I can't wait to read more about the characters! "
