Title: The doctor and the diva
Description: It is 1903. Dr Ravell is a young obstetrician, already highly regarded; his patients include women from all walks of Boston society. But he's flattered when a family of illustrious physicians asks him to treat one of its own members. Erika von Kessler is a beautiful opera singer who has struggled for years to become pregnant. As the young doctor's attraction to her increases, and his treatments prove ineffectual, Erika's despair worsens. Meanwhile Erika's husband Peter, a man of zest and daring, is willing to embark on adventures and personal gambles. But when Dr Ravell takes a great risk that may imperil his promising career - a secret he can share with no one - it is a decision that will change all their dreams and destinies.
