Nurse Kitty’s Secret War, 1 | A novel inspired by the brave nurses and doctors from the first NHS hospital, the Trafford General, opened after the end of World War II. An inspiring and romantic read for fans of Call the Midwife and The Nightingale Girls.
It’s May 1945 and at 3pm, nurse Kitty Longthorne listens, together with the other surgical staff at South Manchester’s Park Hospital, to Winston Churchill’s broadcast on the radio. Germany has signed a declaration of complete surrender. The war is over in Europe and that day is to be celebrated as VE Day.
The mood in Park Hospital – still full of wounded American soldiers – is jubilant and hopeful, though Kitty is anything but. Her clandestine squeeze and the man she hopes to marry, James Williams has been giving her the cold shoulder for the last week, and she can’t work out why. Furthermore, her twin brother, Ned, is still missing in action – his last known whereabouts point to him being in a Japanese prisoner of war camp.
An uplifting, heart-wrenching novel based on the true story of the first ever NHS hospital, for fans of Donna Douglas and Nancy Revell.
Nurse Kitty’s Unforgettable Journey, 2 | When Nurse Kitty becomes the NHS’ poster-girl for its overseas recruitment drive, she swaps the grey post-war backstreets of Manchester for the palm-fringed island of Barbados. But will her determination to save the NHS lose her everyone she loves?
It’s 1949, and Nurse Kitty Longthorne is still hard at work at Manchester’s Park Hospital. The one-year-old NHS is inundated by the nation’s sick and dying, made worse by a crippling labour shortage.
Now engaged, Kitty and James adore each other, but once they marry, she will be expected to leave the job that means so much to her. When she is offered the trip of a lifetime – a voyage by sea to Barbados to recruit nurses to join Park Hospital’s ranks – adventurous Kitty is desperate to go. Her brother, Ned, has been there for years, and she simply cannot resist an opportunity to track him down and see what exactly he’s been up to.
But what of her beloved James? What of the baby she suspects she may be carrying?
Returning home, Kitty has more to contend with than she ever anticipated: a gravely ill father, a dejected fiancé and the close-minded views of her peers upon the arrival of Kitty’s first, hardworking recruit – Nurse Grace. After paradise, will Manchester ever be the same again?
