This is the story of Kay Somers, nurse, and Peter Raynal, a
popular and brilliant surgeon. The strongly opposed forces of their respective
characters bring them into a constant conflict which comes to a head when Kay
is confronted with the loss of her position at St. Jude’s Hospital, and the
breaking of her engagement to the ambitious young farmer who has been a
life-long family friend. The story is set against the background of Hospital
life and Kay’s own rural home, and brings into relief the diverse qualities of
her nature. Her gradual change of heart is brought about through her affection
for an ailing child, a reciprocated affection which pierces Kay’s natural
armour of reserve. It is the child Christine’s influence on Kay which forges
the first link of understanding between herself and Peter Raynal, an understanding
which is destined to change the whole course of Kay’s life and bring her the
joy and happiness which she had once believe lost to her for all time.
