Cheney Duvall, M.D. (6)

Lynn Morris, Gilbert Morris

At St. Francis Hospital, Cheney confronts a medical establishment unwilling to extend compassion and dignity to San Francisco’s most marginalized residents. Her struggle for fair treatment brings her into conflict with powerful staff members and forces difficult questions about prejudice, justice, and the true meaning of service. Set against the tensions of its time, this emotionally engaging historical novel explores courage, compassion, and the cost of standing up for those society prefers to ignore.
