Wartime for the district nurses

Groves, Annie, author

Overview

\"Alice Lake and her friend Edith have had everything thrown at them in their first year as district nurses in the London district of Hackney. From babies born out of wedlock to battered wives, they've had plenty to keep them occupied. Now the lives of every Londoner are about to change forever as Hitler and the Luftwaffe rain down their bombs on the people of the city. The girls find themselves caught up in the terrible aftermath of the raids and run into danger themselves. Amidst the upheaval, there is still time for love, though with the men away fighting for King and Country, the girls have their fair share of heartache and anguish to contend with. It's up to them to keep up the Spirit of the Blitz -and everyone is counting on them...\"--Publisher.
