Doctor's Divorce

What mystery lies behind Dr Stanton's facade of reserve? Veronica Lee, his lovely receptionist, knows him to be a kind and not wholly unemotional man. Why then does he never talk of his own life or aspirations? Why does he go out or entertain so seldom? Veronica, in spite of herself, wonders sometimes if Dr Stanton is in love with his wealthy, pampered patient, Dora Fenton, who has worked so assiduously for his attention. But, knowing the doctor as she does, and herself more than a little in live with him, Veronica knows in her heart of hearts that this cannot be the real answer. And when she learns what the real answer is, she is profoundly shocked. This is the story of Veronica's relationship with the doctor, and what it means to her to find out the true facts about his past. It is the story of a deep and passionate love and of the bitterness, misunderstanding and unhappiness which both lovers must pass through before they can find ultimate fulfillment. It is an absorbing human story which will delight Sonia Deane's readers.
