Reasonable Condition - Pen marking on front cover, rubbing and corner wear, spine creasing, marks to back cover, browned pages.

Nurse Ellen Whitaker is troubled by the hostility surrounding the hospital where she works and its director, Dr Jerry Sterling. The people of Barfield avoid the institution and whisper accusations about Jerry, particularly when the mysterious death of his wife Naomi is mentioned. Naomi's brother, Henry Barfield, seems determined to destroy the doctor's reputation, leaving Ellen to wonder what lies behind the bitterness. Her love for Jerry draws her towards him, but the doubts raised by the town are increasingly difficult to silence. Virtually alone in seeking answers, Ellen must navigate divided loyalties and a situation whose concealed history could change everything she believes about the man she loves.
