For fans of Kate Quinn and Beatriz Williams, this sweeping story follows a fearless nurse who must leave love behind when duty calls her back to the front.
Somewhere in the Pacific, 1943. Kate Campbell is a nurse who bravely flies back and forth from the front to rescue wounded soldiers, amid long days, harsh conditions and often dangerous weather. Driven by a deep personal need to help in the war effort, she is conflicted when an injury results in her reassignment to the relative comfort of the English countryside.
Love has never been part of her plan, but despite herself, she falls for an officer with three bullet wounds, startling blue eyes and a wicked sense of humor. For the first time, Kate sees a future far from the horrors of war and hate. But before she can pursue it, a secret from her past calls her to duty, and she'll have to travel back into danger one more time to rescue a part of herself she'd left behind. But will she make it back? And will that future still be waiting for her if she does?

Kate Campbell is a dedicated nurse serving in the Pacific during WWII--she works tirelessly and selflessly, caring for soldiers in grueling conditions. When she breaks her leg during a difficult flight, she is forced to return to the States to heal, but she is determined to get back on her feet soon. But instead of being sent back to the familiar Pacific theater, Kate finds herself stationed in Great Britain and much closer to the secrets of her childhood. Kate unintentionally falls for William, one of the soldiers in her care, but their time together is threatened both by the war that is raging, and a past that Kate wishes she could leave behind. Salazar slowly unravels Kate's story through dual time lines, using Kate's perspective in 1943 and William's in 2003, which keep readers guessing until the heart-wrenching conclusion to this emotional and devastating, yet also hopeful novel. Fans of Kristin Hannah will appreciate the strong women here as well as the extraordinary circumstances they overcome.COPYRIGHT(2024) Booklist, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
