The journey of their lifetime . . . 'Women can be heroes, too.' When twenty-year-old nursing student Frances Frankie McGrath hears these words, it sparks a revelation. Raised on California's Coronado Island by conservative parents, she has always strived to be a good girl. However, in 1965, as the world shifts around her, she envisions a different path. After her brother ships out to Vietnam, Frankie impulsively joins the Army Nurses Corps, stepping into a chaotic and destructive war zone. As inexperienced as the soldiers she serves alongside, she grapples with the trauma of war and the challenges of returning to a transformed America. Throughout her journey, Frankie learns the true value of female friendship and the heartbreak that love can bring. This narrative highlights one woman's experience in war while illuminating the stories of all women who have risked their lives to help others—sacrifices that have often gone unrecognized. With searing insight and lyrical beauty, it offers a profoundly emotional tale featuring a memorable heroine whose idealism and courage define an era. Praise for the author includes accolades from notable figures, emphasizing her storytelling prowess and the emotional depth of her narratives.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING PHENOMENON—NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE! More than 18 million copies sold worldwide A Reese’s Book Club Pick A Business Insider Defining Book of the Decade “I can't even express how much I love this book! I didn't want this story to end!”—Reese Witherspoon “Painfully beautiful.”—The New York Times Book Review For years, rumors of the “Marsh Girl” have haunted Barkley Cove, a quiet town on the North Carolina coast. So in late 1969, when handsome Chase Andrews is found dead, the locals immediately suspect Kya Clark, the so-called Marsh Girl. But Kya is not what they say. Sensitive and intelligent, she has survived for years alone in the marsh that she calls home, finding friends in the gulls and lessons in the sand. Then the time comes when she yearns to be touched and loved. When two young men from town become intrigued by her wild beauty, Kya opens herself to a new life—until the unthinkable happens. Where the Crawdads Sing is at once an exquisite ode to the natural world, a heartbreaking coming-of-age story, and a surprising tale of possible murder. Owens reminds us that we are forever shaped by the children we once were, and that we are all subject to the beautiful and violent secrets that nature keeps.

'A remarkable story beautifully told... Among such classics as Goodall's In the Shadow of Man and Fossey's Gorillas in the Mist' Chicago TribuneCarrying little more than a change of clothes and a pair of binoculars, two young Americans, Mark and Delia Owens, caught a plane to Africa, bought a thirdhand Land Rover, and drove deep into the Kalahari Desert. There they lived for seven years, in an unexplored area with no roads, no people, and no source of water for thousands of square miles. In this vast wilderness the Owenses began their zoology research, working along animals that had never before been exposed to humans.An international bestseller on original release, Cry of the Kalahari is the story of the Owenses's life with lions, brown hyenas, jackals, giraffes, and the many other creatures they came to know. It is also a gripping account of how they survived the dangers of living in one of the last and largest pristine areas on Earth.
