Elizabeth, the Crimean War Nurse

By: Anna Trogonoski

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Set in 1852 during the evolving Crimean War – the only time in history when Imperial Russia came into military conflict with both France and Great Britain at one time – this first book of the trilogy tells the story of a nurse who selflessly fights for the lives of her patients, both her compatriots and those of the enemy, while being taken into French-British captivity. Elizabeth must choose between the cozy, quiet inlet and the tempestuous storm… The beautiful but impoverished girl from Moscow struggles to choose between Anthony Weiss - the kind and considerate Odessa doctor, who is the embodiment of the quiet and secure inlet, or Vasiliy Voronov, the handsome yet headstrong aristocrat who is the tempestuous gale. After being attacked by Anthony’s former best friend in the forbidden forest, can the young mother learn to love her newly born child? Will the lonely girl survive seven long years of separation from her beloved doctor, after he is sentenced to penal servitude in Siberia for defending her honor? When Eliza learns of Anthony’s accidental death in prison, she agrees to marry Vasiliy, who has returned to his family estate after nearly perishing in the Crimean War. But, did Anthony really die, or did his rival concoct a sinister plot to win Eliza’s affection?
