India Selwyn-Jones is of the rare new breed: a lady doctor. Her family, her eligible, ambitious fiancé, the male medical establishment all object but she begins her work in London's docklands. One of her first patients is a prostitute, and one of her first angry encounters is with the owner of the establishment, a gangland boss called Sid Malone. Criminal he may be but he also has a very good side, and a devastatingly attractive personality, and when India has to repair his bones after some dockside brawl, their friendship becomes more intense. But Sid Malone is not his real name: and he has a past and enemies by the score, including now India's determined fiancé who needs her family wealth for his.
