Enemy bombs have destroyed her unit, and now Jo struggles to keep her patients and herself alive in a cramped and freezing tent as German troops advance. Nearing her breaking point, she fights to hold on to joyful memories and the times she shared with her best friend, Kay, who she met in nursing school.Half a world away in the Pacific, Kay is trapped in a squalid Japanese POW camp in Manila, one of thousands of people whose fates rest in the hands of a sadistic enemy. Kay clings to memories of her days posted in Hawaii in the weeks before Pearl Harbor. Surrounded by cruelty and death, Kay battles to maintain her sanity and save lives as best she can . . . and live to see her beloved friend Jo once more. When the conflict finally ends, Jo and Kay discover that to achieve their own peace, they must find their places in a world that's forever changed.
