A powerful and evocative debut novel about two American military nurses during World War II that illuminates the unsung heroism of women who risked their lives in the fight, THE FIRE BY NIGHT is a riveting saga of friendship, valor, sacrifice and survival combining the grit and selflessness of "Band of Brothers" with the emotional resonance of THE NIGHTINGALE.
