The Lies We Leave Behind

De: Noelle Salazar

Narrado por: Xe Sands, Patrick Zeller

“Noelle Salazar has an unerring instinct for writing tough women with big hearts . . . The Lies We Leave Behind is a globe-spanning wartime journey filled with pathos and heart!” —Kate Quinn, New York Times bestselling author of The Rose Code

For fans of Kate Quinn and Beatriz Williams, this sweeping story follows a fearless nurse who must leave love behind when duty calls her back to the front.

Somewhere in the Pacific, 1943. Kate Campbell is a nurse who bravely flies back and forth from the front to rescue wounded soldiers, amid long days, harsh conditions and often dangerous weather. Driven by a deep personal need to help in the war effort, she is conflicted when an injury results in her reassignment to the relative comfort of the English countryside.

Love has never been part of her plan, but despite herself, she falls for an officer with three bullet wounds, startling blue eyes and a wicked sense of humor. For the first time, Kate sees a future far from the horrors of war and hate. But before she can pursue it, a secret from her past calls her to duty, and she'll have to travel back into danger one more time to rescue a part of herself she'd left behind. But will she make it back? And will that future still be waiting for her if she does?

The story of Kate, the flight nurse.

I didn't like the male voice of Williams daughter and granddaughter. Why didn't you get a female voice for them?

Such love

I enjoyed this from start to finish. The narrators made the book come to life. Brought out a side to the characters that made them feel so real. Brought out emotions in me that were so realistic. I shed quite a few tears reading this wonderful book.
A love story. A war story.
A naval flight nurse meets a military man and they fall deeply in love only to be torn apart.
This is a must read. A must listen.

MUST READ/LISTEN

Absolutely fantastic. From the story to narration. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Recommending to everyone. The characters were so captivating, real, vulnerable and yet inspiringly strong.

Well told, historically possible characters

I loved the story although it was heartbreaking. So much of the story is rooted in history and accuracy, from the events to the soldiers to the nurses and all the emotions therein. The book gives excellent insight into what various populations may have been experiencing during this time in history. Well told, well narrated and much enjoyed.

so good!

I loved this book, just as I loved all others by this author. It was engaging and unpredictable yet believable.

Great story line and awesome narration!

Great storyline and I loved the narrators! Xe Sands makes every book wonderful! I’d rather listen to her than read the book.

Well written but sad

This book was thoughtfully written, but it did not have a satisfying ending. The narrators’ voices or tones were also a little grating.

nursing

the narration was one of the worse I have heard. the narrator read the whole book as if she were on the brink of tears.
