Wings of the Nightingale follows three friends serving as flight nurses in the U.S. Army Nurse Corps during World War II. The series moves through the North Africa campaign, the invasion of Italy, and the D-Day operations. Each book pairs the wartime nursing storyline with a romance.

Sundin drew on real historical records of the Army Air Forces flight nurse program for this series. The books cover a part of women’s wartime service that rarely appears in popular fiction, and they were praised for making that history accessible to a wide readership.
