New challenges await as Nancy continues her charity work in aid of Canadian wounded soldiers, widows, and orphans. In 1918, as the war appears to be coming to an end, renewed hope that the end of the war will bring prosperity and a new beginning, are dashed as tragedy strikes in the form of the Spanish Influenza Epidemic. This book dispels any thoughts that the Pacific Northwest and its people were not affected by what became known as the 1918 Influenza Pandemic ... and then, news of a special event finally brightens life in the Brown household.
