Publisher Description
Julie is a junior hospital doctor at a dramatic crossroads in life as she realises that both her career and her marriage mean nothing to her. After a year abroad she returns to her family home to put the past behind her and decide on her future. A chance encounter with an old family friend leads to a meeting with Nicholas and the start of a whirlwind, all-consuming romantic affair.
But the past she has attempted to forget insists on being confronted and comes forcefully and seemingly irrevocably between the two lovers. Julie is sent off into a completely different direction as she returns to her old hospital and enters the shadowy world of sickness, suffering and acute heartache.
The young doctor is forced, in more ways than one, to reappraise her past and her future before she can find the rightful place for herself in a world now turned upside down.
Customer Reviews
Fantastic!
This is a heartbreaking story about the struggles of a young doctor. The characters were fantastic and the story was interesting and sad. I was tearful at the end because she was finally happy.
