To forget the pain of a tragic romance, Nurse Frances Kirkman went out to Shadow Manor to act as companion to its elderly mistress. In that quiet countryside, she would try to achieve peace of mind.
But that hope turned out to be a will-o-the-wisp as Frances found when she learned the secret of the manor's other woman — the young and willful niece of her employer. For that secret meant danger and trouble.
Yet there was also the attractive Dr. Ralph Grant around…and he seemed to be capable of starting Frances' wounded heart beating to a new and more exciting tune.
