  St. Paul's Hospital Nurse Kathy Hogan was an operating room nurse at large, modern St. Paul's. She participated in the daily drama of life and death at the side of the brilliant surgeon, Gregory Martin. She was his trusted assistant, the nurse he called for in the most hazardous operations. A widower, Dr. Martin seemed to have no private life -- he was dedicated to his profession. Kathy wondered if the respect and admiration she felt for him was only that -- or did it cover deeper emotions? She had to decide because young Bill Regan wanted to give her an engagement ring.
