Overview

Baroness Agn s de Saint-Aubin is a young Parisian doctor with a mysterious past.

She follows the attractive--but married--Dr. Alan Bell to the front lines at the Ch teau de Dragoncourt in Picardy, where they help battle the horrors of the trench war. When the castle is captured by German soldiers, the war turns personal as Agn s's secret becomes both a terrible liability--and a mighty weapon. Until Alan is severely injured and her world falls apart.

Countess Madeleine, the young go-getter of the Dragoncourt family, is furious that she's been sidelined to a Swiss finishing school.

Knowing her place is in the thick of the action, she runs away to join her siblings who are working as medics at the Ch teau. Upon learning that it's fallen to the Germans, Madeleine is determined to effect a rescue of the French doctors and nurses held prisoner within. But what can a mere teenager do against the German army?

Told from Agn s's and Madeleine's perspectives, In Picardy's Fields is a tribute to the brave young women of WW1. Through their work and courage, they set in motion the true liberation of 20th century women.
