Nurse Errant

About this book

The scene of this novel of the nursing world is set in a Kentish village, where Lesley Sanders is a District Nurse. The even rhythm of her work is interrupted when Mike Ellis becomes the locum doctor and she meets Paddy, the tall, easygoing nephew of Mrs. Graves. Paddy Larraby was an architect, yet he seemed to be permanently on holiday. It was only by accident that Lesley discovered he was in serious danger of losing his sight. Soon afterwards she realised that they had fallen in love. Paddy goes into hospital for an operation which may save his sight, but he makes it clear that he would never consider marriage should he become blind. After much anxiety, Lesley hears that the operation has been successful.
