About this listen
As Christmas 1938 approaches, the staff at the Nightingale Hospital have their own wishes for the festive season. Ward sister Frannie Wallace is hoping she won't have to live through another war like the one that claimed her fiance. Staff Nurse Helen Dawson wants to find happiness again after the death of her husband Charlie. But is she looking for love in the wrong place?
Matron Kathleen Fox struggles to keep up morale. But while everyone else worries about the future of the Nightingale, it's for her own future that Kathleen truly fears. As the country prepares itself for war, one thing is for sure – nothing at the Nightingale Hospital will be the same again.

Brings back memories
The story accurately describes the feelings and memories I remember from my own casualty days when a burns child victim was brought into my care, making this story, for me, very realistic.
Another enjoyable story, thank you. On to the next. I'm loving it.

Superb
From start to finish the story unfolded with charm and delight, painting a picture of hospital life that was so caring, with the lives of the nurses in the stark reality of life between the wars. Narration was excellent.
