CALLING DOCTOR MERRYMAN

By

Pub Date: Dec. 15th, 1954
Publisher: Avalon

28 years old Mark Merryman returns to his old home to establish a practice and although he is off to a slow start in getting patients he is quickly enmeshed in double trouble -- between spoiled, wealthy Genevieve, and attractive, understanding nurse Dinah. Genevieve gets in some first fast licks but it is Dinah's plight, with her husband in jail and raising her little son, that really stops Mark's seesawing. The threat of her husband after his successful jail break, the kidnaping of the little boy and the death of his father clear the way for Mark's chance to take care of Dinah and Danny permanently. Minor medical miracles here.
