a true victoria holt threw and trew

if you've never read a victoria holt book than this one you would love it is the 12th victoria holt book i read

What a secret for a nightengale!

This book is my second favorite of Victoria Holt's, my first being "The Demon Lover". Her books are quality romance/mystery/history, which are hard to find these days. This book realistically portrays the struggle of a nurse durring WWI, not just with her nursing duties but with her immense personal struggles as well.

The Best of all of the can't let go books

This is one of Victoria Holt's best book. Once you get into it you'll never be able to put it down. I have gotten in trouble for staying up all night while reading her books. It is a great novel. I actual hated Dr. Adair in the beginning, I couldn't stand him! But then when I got to know the real him, I was in love with the character. (not literally!) If you haven't haven't read this book you should, you won't regret wasting time on a book when it's one of Victoria Holt's books.

One of the best books I have ever read!!

"Secret for a Nightingale" is absolutely a very good book. When I read it, I was nearly hypnotized by it! The book is filled with exitement, mystery-and romance. It is a typical Victoria Holt-ending, the unexpected ending.That`s some of the good things about her.

One of her best!

Victoria Holt really captures you in this one. She keeps you hanging on till the end wondering whom the heroine will end up with in this one. It has great historical insite too, which is not a surprise to Victoria Holt fans. In this one the heroine follows Florence Nightingale to heal soldiers and try to improve hospital conditions. She finds herself falling in love with a doctor she suspects of killing her child and ruining her husband with drugs. It is wonderful and you have to read it if you like Victoria Holt at all.
