The story opens with 21-year-old Frankie McGrath on Coronado Island, celebrating her brother’s enlistment for the Vietnam War. A pivotal moment occurs in her father’s study when Rye, her brother’s friend, challenges societal norms by asserting that “women can be heroes too.” Inspired by this defiance, Frankie joins the Army Nurse Corps, defying her conservative family’s expectations. As a nursing student, she faces the harsh realities of war in Vietnam, providing vivid accounts of her experiences. The hospital scenes capture the chaotic and heartbreaking nature of the conflict, with Frankie forming enduring friendships with fellow nurses.

“Hannah’s prose captures the essence of resilience, reminding us that strength knows no gender. A must-read for anyone seeking inspiration from the untold stories of women who changed the course of history.”

Transitioning to the aftermath of war, the novel spans two decades. Frankie returns home, only to find her sacrifice met with indifference. The story delves into her struggle with PTSD, addiction, and societal rejection, portraying the profound impact of war on her life. Through Frankie’s character, Hannah explores the complexities of resilience, loss, and the indomitable spirit of women who served.
