Doctor Agnès: An Epic and Heartbreaking Love Story of the WW1 Frontlines (A Resistance Girl Novel) Kindle Edition

by Hannah Byron (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.0 4.0 out of 5 stars 90 ratings

France 1917

Agnès Gunarsson de Melancourt, now a qualified doctor, faces a critical decision. Her duty as a physician draws her back to Château de Dragancourt despite her earlier attempts to distance herself.

As World War I rages in northern France, the chateau becomes a frontline hospital led by the once-charismatic Elle and Jacques. Agnès, with her friend Kat, navigates the chateau's makeshift operating room to save Allied soldiers.

In this crucible of healing and sacrifice, Agnès encounters a transformed Elle and Jacques, now driven by duty over privilege.

Can she offer Elle a second chance at friendship amidst the chaos of war? And why does the enigmatic Jacques consistently breach her defenses?

'Doctor Agnès,' a cornerstone of 'The Resistance Girl Series,' explores the horrors of war and the resilience of the human spirit. It bridges personal and universal conflicts while forging connections that transcend time and tragedy.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A Novel off Bravery

    World war I is the scene in which brave surgeons struggled to save the lives of wounded soldiers. Women as doctors were new to the field. The readers of this novel will follow their challenges as the story unfolds. It is a novel that is difficult to put down.

    4.0 out of 5 stars A riveting story about a young doctor during WWI
    Reviewed in the United States on May 18, 2021
    This is the second book in a two book pairing, the first being Miss Agnes. In this book, Agnes is grown and is a newly minted doctor. Together with her best friend and fellow doctor, they decide to drive to her family castle to help with the war effort. They are diverted to the estate of her former acquaintances Jacques and Elle, with whom she was uncomfortable. The dead and wounded shocked Agnes and her friend, but they step up and work heroically to save as many lives as possible.

    As usual for this author, this book is very well written and absorbing. The book is more of a novella, short reading, but very interesting and the characters are a joy to come to know.

    A previous book by the author has many of the same character names and the same locale, but the Miss Agnes and Doctor Agnes books contain a different story from "In Picardy's Field." which was published earlier and also takes place during World War I.

    I recommend this historical novel to any reader mature enough to handle the horrors of war.

    The author provided me with an advance reader copy of the book. This is my honest review.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Agnes on the front line
    Reviewed in the United States on May 18, 2021
    Our dear sweet Agnes is a Doctor, she and her friend have decided to travel to the Dragancourt castle turned hospital. Immediately they voluntarily put themselves to work and help many of the war’s casualties. It would appear that this novella would bump right into In Picardy’s Fields but not exactly. The author warns us ahead of reading that it’s slightly different, but it’s not by much. It’s an interesting historical read with fascinating medical techniques and, I imagine, very accurate descriptions of what life on the frontlines would have been like. If you have enjoyed Agnes and Doctor Agnes, try Picardy’s Fields. I have written my review after reading an early copy, voluntarily and unbiased.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Doc Agnes

    Doctor Agnès by Hannah Byron
    This story starts out when Drs. Agnès and Kat are on their way to help out with the war in the medical field healing those they can.
    Agnès has fears of returning to the castle as it's been turned into a medical hospital. Jacques and Elle are doing their part also for the war.
    She had not expected that in the least and her and Kat pitch right in and even rooming together as beds are scarce. Love how they all interact with one another.
    bygones will be bygones but some thoughts and memories linger.
    Everything runs smoothly til Jacques is in an accident and now they all have to help heal him, not sure if he'd ever walk again...
    Enjoyable read mixed in with war scenes.
