O knihe:

In 1851, life is anything but tranquil for the Morlands, Fenwick, a distant American cousin, calls unexpectedly at Morland Place, only to fall in love with Mary and create an agonising dilemma for her father, Benedict. Charlotte balances the demands of society and motherhood in London, while her brother Cavendish, a dashing cavalry officer, falls in and out of love with the most unsuitable people. And in Manchester, cousin Fanny's marriage turns from idyll to nightmare, prompting a desperate
course of action.
When war breaks out against Russia, Cavendish sets off with his regiment for the Crimea in high spirits - but all the courage and gaiety of the cavalry cannot save them from the brutal horrors of war and pestilence. As the bitter Russian winter finds the army at the mercy of cholera, dysentery, frostbite and gangrene, Charlotte's nursing skills are desperately needed. Oliver begs her to leave, but Charlotte knows that nothing she may have to face can be worse than watching her brother ride into the
Valley of Death ...
