However, her life takes an unexpected turn when she finds herself embroiled in a murder investigation that threatens her career and very existence. Tasked with tending to wounded soldiers, Bess is no stranger to the horrors of war, but she never anticipated being drawn into a web of intrigue and suspicion.
As she navigates the complexities of a war-torn environment, Bess must confront not only the physical wounds of her comrades but also the emotional toll of solving a crime that could endanger her own life.
