Our Lady of Alice Bhatti

"The patients of the Sacred Heart Hospital need a miracle. Alice Bhatti may be just what they're looking for. She's just been released from the Borstal jail. She's the daughter of a part-time healer, and it seems she has inherited his gift. With a bit of begrudging but inspired improvisation, Alice begins to bring succor to the patients. But all is not miraculous. Alice is a Christian in an Islamic world, ensnared in the red tape of hospital bureaucracy, torn between her duty to her patients, her father, and her husband - who is about to drag Alice into a situatiion so dangerous that perhaps not even a miracle will be able to save them. But, of course, Alice Bhatti is no ordinary young woman"--back of insert.

  • "Following in her healer father's footsteps to become a junior nurse in a Karachi hospital, Alice taps inherent talents to bring relief to suffering patients but is hampered by a bureaucratic caste system, religious prejudice and a dangerous police squad."@en
  • "Only weeks since her release from Borstal, Alice is a candidate for the position of junior nurse at Sacred Heart Hospital for All Ailments. With guidance from the working nurse's manual, Alice brings support to thousands of patients. In the process, she attracts the attention of a lovesick patient, Teddy Bunt. They fall in love; Teddy with sudden violence, Alice with cautious optimism. Their love is unexpected, but the consequences are not."
