An Uncertain Heart

by June Tate

Overview

Belgium, 1917. At a military hospital in Poperinge, close to the horrors of the front line, Sister Helen Chalmers strives tirelessly to save the many injured soldiers brought in from battle. The hardships of war and the need for comfort throws Helen into the arms of the eminent surgeon Captain Richard Carson - although she knows a romance with a married man will never last.
It's not long before Helen is swept off her feet by Captain James Havers, a man with whom she can see a future. When James is injured in the fighting, he is sent back to Britain to recover. But it's soon clear his injuries are more than just physical; the violence of warfare has left him a changed man. Helen must summon what strength she can to help the man she loves overcome the lasting and devastating effects of war.

Editorial Reviews

"The absolute horror and loss of life experienced by the soldiers and the medics who treated them from the battlefields of Passchendaele during 1917 were not easily erased from memory. For many of these young people, scarred both physically and mentally, their trauma endured for the remainder of their lives, affecting their ability to sustain relationships, hold down a job, or resume everyday activities. June Tate has captured these difficulties perfectly... The characters captivate us, and we become engrossed in their progress."
