Requests:  0 Summary:  "In the midst of World War II, an English musician, Norah Chambers, places her eight-year-old daughter Sally on a ship leaving Singapore, desperate to keep her safe from the Japanese army as they move down through the Pacific. Norah remains to care for her husband and elderly parents, knowing she may never see her child again. Sister Nesta James, a Welsh Australian nurse, has enlisted to tend to Allied troops. But as Singapore falls to the Japanese she joins the terrified cargo of people, including the heartbroken Norah, crammed aboard the Vyner Brooke merchant ship. Only two days later, they are bombarded from the air off the coast of Indonesia, and in a matter of hours, the Vyner Brooke lies broken on the seabed. After surviving a brutal 24 hours in the sea, Nesta and Norah reach the beaches of a remote island, only to be captured by the Japanese and held in one of their notorious POW camps. The camps are places of starvation and brutality, where disease runs rampant. Sisters in arms, Norah and Nesta fight side by side every day, helping whoever they can, and discovering in themselves and each other extraordinary reserves of courage, resourcefulness and determination"-- Provided by publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Aiea Public Library Acquisitions --- On Order   in Processing   Add Copy to MyList Ewa Beach P/S Library Adult Fiction Morris Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii Kai Public Library Adult New Books Morris Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Fiction Morris Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kahuku P/S Library Adult Fiction Morris Checked out 07/05/2024 Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Fiction Morris Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kalihi-Palama Public Library Adult Fiction Morris Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kealakekua Public Library Adult Fiction Morris Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library Adult Fiction Morris Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Laupahoehoe P/S Library Adult Fiction Morris Checked In   Add Copy to MyList More Results: 1 2 Next
