Soul Nurse — Rose Dana

Sally Hughes, R.N., had a nurse's dream come true at Canton General. Her boss was the brilliant chief surgeon, Dr. Stan Thorne. She was respected for her dedication, talent and poise. And two men loved her -- the bitter but handsome Dr. Jim Dawson and Stan himself.

But Stan was white. Could Sally, a black girl, even hope to surmount the difficulties their love presented in the small New England town? Perhaps she would find a way…then tragedy struck. Canton's mayor is mysteriously stabbed, a black person is unjustly accused and Sally faces the desperate choice -- one that involves not only her man but the meaning of her life.
