Cat has been sent to the Nightingale by her father, who hopes the hospital can instill some discipline into his happy-go-lucky daughter. Diana has spent her life making up for the loss of her beloved sister, Elspeth, by being the perfect daughter. But how long can she go on trying when her mother hardly seems to notice her? With a steep learning curve ahead, will the Nightingale Daughters rise to the challenge?
