Another interesting romp with nurse Bess and she alternates between administering to WWI casualties in France and investigates the reasons behind a nefarious plot to discredit and convict the father of a patient she had helped survive his wounds. It's too bad they didn't award mileage for trips back and forth across the Channel -- she'd have been able to buy her own boat by the end of this story. The ending is a bit abrupt, and I think for such a sensible character she does act foolishly now and then. Maybe it's effects of mal-de-mer (although she mentions not being affected by it.)
