Rose Courtenay's wealthy parents expect her to marry a neighbour's son and then settle down in Dorset. But the outbreak of the Great War offers Rose an unlikely opportunity to escape. Longing for adventure, she trains to be a nurse and is sent to France where the stark reality of war forces her to grow up fast.
