Absolutely riveting for me, as it is set in the time when I first started nursing, proving how tough it was then for nurses. Worth paints a superb picture of the Docklands area of London, showing how our lives have changed since then, both generally and in the nursing world, and describing how the various people, living in often impossible conditions, survived. Particularly pointing out how strong the women of that age were. Difficult to put down.
