Out of the Valley — Linda Steele

In the summer of 1940 when war clouds were gathering, Susanna and Joseph Von Helldorf were recruited by the United States Army to train combat surgeons in preparation for war. Though they were never meant to go anywhere near enemy lines, through a series of clerical errors, they spend nearly the entire war in combat zones. Surrounded by tragedy, Susanna and Joseph strive to save the young soldiers and guide the youthful medical staff toward excellence. As they move through the war, they touch many lives at their most critical moments. If they survive, what will happen when the war is over? Maybe nothing will ever be the same again. The characters that were so loved in Random Acts are in the thick of the action once again in a sweeping drama with a host of new players who bring rich detail to this incredible historical event. Readers will be rewarded by stories that will fill their hearts.
