Title: Lucy Lamb
Description: It was a tremendous step for Lucy Lamb to leave her work in the children's wards of St. Minver's Hospital and marry the famous surgeon, Bartlemy Travers. Many a woman envied Lucy her marriage to this attractive doctor, who had a romantic hint of past tragedy to heighten his fascination.
But Lucy knew that she came to Polvane, his big house beside the Cornish sea, as an unloved wife, haunted always by the ghost of her lovely predecessor, and wanted by nobody but one small motherless boy.
The situation was a strange one, and neither Lucy nor Bart guessed that the Matron herself of St. Minver's had determined to play a hand in fashioning both their destinies.
Lucy was not a fighter, not the type to mould people and events to suit herself, but she had strength of character in her own gentle way. Would it be enough to bring happiness and warmth to her strange new home?
