In 1913, a 15 year-old pregnant girl is found dead of apparent suicide.
Dr. James Wilson, a new graduate and the first doctor ever to start a practice in this rural town, feels guilty over her death because of his delayed intervention. He knows Bessie was raped by one of her relatives and vows to find justice for her.
He discovers that circumstances are not always as they appear and it is hard to find justice for female victims of sexual abuse especially in the early 1900s.
The story later swings to the battlefields of France as WWI erupts and it is here that James discovers the truth about Bessie's death and a form of justice is achieved.
In this story, James finds love, wrestles with moral dilemmas, treats illnesses and conditions as doctors would in 1913-19 and enlists in a war that provides truth and justice for him but no peace.
This book is about decisions, made and unmade, spontaneous or calculated, and how they can affect the lives of so many.
