While working for the Red Cross during World War I, Walpole rescued a wounded soldier under fire. He drew on his experiences for this 1916 novel featuring a love triangle between a nurse, a weak English physician, and a brutal Russian doctor. Critics praised the book for showing the Russian view of the war.
