    1865. The American Civil War has just ended.

    When Vita Tenney's father tells her she must abandon her dream of becoming a doctor and get married instead, she looks for a means of escape - and finds one in war veteran Jacob Culhane. Damaged by
    what he's seen in battle and with all his family gone, Jacob is seeking a new start. Then he meets Vita
    and together they hatch a plan. But even the best plans have unexpected consequences . . .

    Sweeping and atmospheric, The Physician's Daughter is a compelling story of ambition, betrayal and love
    and of two people trying to make their way in a world that is struggling to escape its past.
