Large Print
Somerset, 1932. In the dead of night, a young woman is abandoned on the steps of Orchard Cottage Hospital and a man is seen fleeing. Nobody knows their identities. When the young woman dies, Doctor Frances Brakespeare is keen to solve the mystery of her identity and find those responsible for her fatal injuries. With her mother's failing health and a very patient admirer, the last thing Frances needs is a dream job offer from a top London hospital. Torn, Frances must decide what matters more to her; her career or remaining in a small town she's become attached to surrounded by those who need and love her. With the society wedding of the year fast approaching will Nurse Lucy Daniels be able to unburden her news and will Devlin Compton-Dixon be honest with his feelings and anxieties? As Christmas blossoms into Spring there are huge decisions to be made, honest truths to be told and long kept secrets to be revealed.
