Plot summary

Marine Corporal Allison is shipwrecked on a Pacific island during World War II. The only other person on the island is a nun, Sister Angela. The pure nun and the rough-and-ready soldier have characters totally at odds at each other, but they come to recognize their shared experience in serving institutions larger than themselves, and gradually develop an attachment to each other.—David Gibson
