So when Maggie Groff embarks as a student nurse at London's King's College Hospital she must quickly get to grips with the demands of her chosen career. It's sink or swim. In a delightful romp through time, played out against the march of feminism and the fashion, music and movies of almost half a century ago, we follow Maggie's highs and lows as with trial and much error she becomes a highly skilled nurse and sets sail for a new life in Australia. From the watchful gaze of stern ward sisters and the ordeals of nursing at a poor housing estate to becoming an industrial nurse at the iconic Sydney Opera House, Maggie shares her stories of mistakes and mayhem, tea and sympathy, and the life-affirming moments that make it all worthwhile.

Book excerpt: Practicing nurse and New York Times columnist Theresa Brown invites us to experience not just a day in the life of a nurse but all the life that happens in just one day on a busy teaching hospital’s cancer ward. In the span of twelve hours, lives can be lost, life-altering treatment decisions made, and dreams fulfilled or irrevocably stolen. Unfolding in real time--under the watchful eyes of this dedicated professional and insightful chronicler of events--The Shift gives an unprecedented view into the individual struggles as well as the larger truths about medicine in this country. By shift’s end, we have witnessed something profound about hope and humanity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bringing a new life into the world is a beautiful experience. Unless it’s in the middle of the worst storm to hit Norfolk for decades, and you’re trapped in a remote, rundown cottage hospital, where the matron believes it’s still the nineteen-fifties! A pre-Christmas get-together at Fern Cottage turns into a panic-filled dash to the hospital at Kings Lynn for Celia, Jack, Daisy and Aidan. They don’t make it. As the crazy storm brings down trees all around them, forced to make a last-gasp detour along a tiny wooded lane, their prayers are answered. Or so they think. Through the lashing rain they spot a tiny, private cottage hospital. With Celia in acute pain, there’s no choice. That’s when the problems really begin… Meanwhile, back in Great Wiltingham… With all four members of the HDA otherwise occupied, Doris and Maisie take it upon themselves to keep the detective agency running. By an unfortunate quirk of fate they accept a case, and there’s no one else to handle it except the Terrible Twosome! It’s just a simple job. The kind that can be wrapped up in a few hours. Or maybe it’s not… Daisy's third Christmas special is a roller-coaster of high emotion and unexpected twists and turns. Enjoy!
