A Nurse’s Secret

Brought to you by Penguin.

A heartbreaking story of love and forgiveness from Sunday Times bestselling author Donna Douglas. Perfect for fans of Call the Midwife!

London's East End, 1940: a frightened young woman gives birth to a tiny baby. Clearly alone, she refuses to hold the child: she can’t let herself bond with the baby she must give up. But sometime in the night, a terrifying air raid forces the maternity unit to evacuate, and in the chaos, mother and baby are separated…

Eighteen years later, student nurse Amy begins her career at the Nightingale Hospital. Finally away from the unhappy confines of home, she finds a friend and mentor in Sister Elizabeth Clyde. But Elizabeth is hiding a secret – one that could change both of their lives, forever…
Will past mistakes destroy two families, or can love finally put an end to heartbreak?
