Doctor Dee — Elizabeth Wesley

When Dr. Dee Bailey joined the surgical staff of big, modern Still River General Hospital to serve as anesthesiologist under Surgeon Arn Thurston she made an implacable enemy of Nurse Cele Maynard. For the young nurse was madly in love with the handsome surgeon and believed Dr. Dee wanted him, too. Then fate played into the hands of Nurse Maynard. A powerful underworld czar was brought for an emergency operation and Nurse Maynard listened on an extension phone as a sinister voice offered Dr. Dee “real money, a hundred grand -- if he don't come through that operation.” When Phil Roscoe died on the table, the young nurse, almost insane with triumphant malice, made her accusation.

Dr. Dee Bailey had taken a man's life for a hundred thousand dollars!
