In 1854 the Crimean War captures the imagination of young men eager to do battle with the new enemy, Russia, but the military hospitals fill with the sick and wounded. In defiance of Florence Nightingale, Rosa Barr travels to the battlefields, determined to be useful. Her cousin, Mariella Lingwood, remains at home, but when Mariella's fiancé Henry, a doctor working in the shadow of the guns, falls ill and Rosa's communications cease, she is drawn inexorably to the war. Her journey to the ravaged Crimea prompts a reckless affair with a cavalry officer, and reveals a well of unexpected strength and passion.
