A city not forsaken

"Cheney Duvall has returned to New York, determined to go into a private practice with the handsome Devlin Buchanan. His sponsorship offers her an excellent chance for success among the most wealthy and refined residents of New York. But rumors of plague had reached New York. A cholera outbreak in London had been reported in 1866, and the deadly pestilence along with Devlin was now transported on the steamship Virginia. Despite holding the ship in quarantine, it was only a matter of time before the disease would spread. While it's gratifying to brush elbows with the Rockefellers and Vanderbilts, her past work has left its mark deep in her soul. Can Cheney be content in a world of high society and pomp, or will the call of the poor and the horrors of the epidemic draw her back?"
