Home for Christmas
“Dripping blood meant an injured or dying patient. No patient on the wards of Liverpool’s Mill Street Hospital ever dripped blood. Mill Street . . . She wasn’t at Mill Street any more, she was working in London. But she wasn’t in a hospital now . . . was she?
The train . . . The train had been bombed. Now, with lightning speed, Sally’s awareness of where she was and why came back to her. It was pitch-black inside the compartment, and the air was filled with the sounds of groans and cries. People... were hurt, injured, and she was a nurse. Something heavy was lying on top of her, preventing her from breathing properly. Sally tried to move and then tensed when she heard a groan. She was pinned down by another person.
