These three stories are all amazing in their own ways. I love historical stories that show detailed glimpses into history. The first story about the nurse I couldn’t put down and read it all in one sitting. It is also a story I would re-read over and over. The second story didn’t appeal as much to me and I’m not sure why but I still read it and finished it. The 3rd story was amazing and once again read it in 1 sitting. The detail and emotions come through and had me sitting on the edge of my seat. Highly recommend.
