Ever since her younger sister tried to elope with a poor Dutchman, Deborah Allard has faced immense pressure to forget her childhood dreams and marry an established gentleman. Under her mother’s constant criticisms, Deborah has been unable to study medicine or marry the man she loves. Frustrated by living under her mother’s demands, Deborah actively searches for a way to prove her capability.
Then yellow fever strikes.
Despite the growing fear within the city, Deborah sees this as an opportunity to prove to everyone, including herself, that she has what it takes to be the daughter, woman, and doctor that she has always wanted to be. But nothing could have prepared her for the horrors that a fever-ridden city would inflict upon her—and all she’s ever known.”
