Nineteen-year-old Annabelle Worthington was born into a life
of privilege, but everything changed on an April day in
1912, when the sinking of the Titanic shattered her
family and her world forever. Finding strength within her
grief, Annabelle pours herself into volunteer work, igniting
a passion for medicine that would shape the course of her
life.
But for Annabelle, first love, and a seemingly
idyllic marriage, will soon bring grief caused by the
secrets of her husband. Betrayed, and pursued by undeserved
scandal, Annabelle flees New York for war-ravaged France,
hoping to lose herself in a life of service. There, in the
heart of the First World War, in a groundbreaking field
hospital run by women, Annabelle finds her true calling,
studying medicine and saving lives. When the war ends,
Annabelle begins a new life in Paris—now a doctor, a mother,
her past almost forgotten…until a fateful meeting opens her
heart to the world she had left behind.
Filled with
breathtaking images and historical detail, Danielle Steel’s
new novel introduces one of her most unique and fascinating
characters: Annabelle Worthington, a remarkable woman—a good
woman—who triumphs against overwhelming odds. More than
compelling fiction, her story is a powerful celebration of
life, dignity, and courage—and a testament to the human will
to survive.
