East London, 1914. Britain is preparing itself for war. While young men queue to enlist up and down the country, the Nightingale Hospital has its own set of new recruits. Anna Beck is the daughter of the best baker in Bethnal Green. Her German father built the business out of nothing and now has regular queues outside the shop. But as shadow of war descends, Elise's father's fate is at the mercy of their neighbours. Meanwhile Katie Carlyle has always wanted to follow in her father's footsteps and become a doctor. She fought hard to get accepted into medical school at the Nightingale, and even now she faces prejudice from her fellow students as well as the tutors. Can she prove them wrong? And Sadie Sedgwick is desperate to escape her humble roots. She joins the Nightingale for a fresh start, a new life away from the mother she despises.
