Product Description
Small does Nurse Cherry realize when distinguished Sir Ian Barclay is rushed by his nephew Lloyd to Hilton Sickbay that her newest case will carry her north to misty, sea-beaten Balfour Island, off the rugged coast of wind-swept Newfoundland. “Sudden hemorrhage of a peptic ulcer,” Dr. Joe Fortune had quickly diagnosed, and Cherry is assigned to care for the truculent but winning ancient Scotsman. Cherry soon suspects that more than illness is worrying the peppery owner of the Balfour Iron Mines, and her suspicions only deepen upon their arrival at Barclay House on Balfour Island.
Right, there is distress at the mines. But the mysterious actions of Sir Ian’s former supporter, Jock Cameron, force Cherry to conclude that distress of even greater consequence is in the making. What hold does the industrialist Broderick have over Sir Ian? Who is “Small Joe” Tweed, and why does his trawler Heron ride at anchor off Balfour Island?
The startling solution to this baffling mystery waits for Cherry in three different places: deep in the salt-stained recesses of Rogues’ Cave, in the musty tower room of Barclay House, and in the hole on the hill. But first Cherry must face the effects of an island storm, as she and the island doctor struggle to save the crew of a shoal-wrecked boat.
