Nurse in the Tropics — Ann Gilmer

A handsome doctor, a guilty secret and a violent threat seemed to conspire against Nurse Alice's new-found happiness...

When her fiance married her best friend, Nurse Alice Connors was heartbroken. To escape the painful memories, she accepted a position at an exclusive hospital on a lush Caribbean island. The handsome plastic surgeon who ran the clinic insisted on privacy for the famous movie stars and socialites who could afford the large fees he charged for his skilled and secret operations. But Alice soon discovered that the elaborate security precautions -- the locked doors and the high fence -- hid more than the identities of the famous patients. What was the doctor's guilty secret from a violent past? Why did his secretary turn on Alice so ferociously? Why was her every move observed? And, finally, what was the truth about the mysterious night events that drove Alice almost past the edge of sanity?
