The doctor's secret nearly destroyed him . . .

A gang of speed-crazy kids, on motor cycles, brought Doctor Peter Elliott into contact with two sisters - one blonde and sweet and lovely - the other brunette, with a soul as black as her hair.

Juggled crazily between these two beautiful young women, the handsome doctor found himself unbelievably acting as foolishly as the bike-mad youngsters he despised. He despised them for the terrible accident that befell blonde, lovely Anne Maxine; yet one of their number, dark and beautiful Suzy Maxine, spun a web of subtle, sensual intrigue around him that he seemed unable to escape.

Doctor Peter Elliott was torn by this powerful conflict - his love for the beautiful young woman whose life he saved one the one hand, and the exciting temptation of a beautiful, unscrupulous woman on the other, whose enticements took him to the brink of ruin.

Back cover states:

She was dark, beautiful . . . and wholly evil. No many could resist Lea Ashcroft . . . no man ever had; except young Doctor John Palmer. And then he became a challenge, something that Lea had to have.

Beyond the door, a wild Twist party was in progress. John turned and looked at her. "Your father said you needed a doctor," he said, suddenly nervous of her.

"I do."

She was close against him, her arms snaking up and around his neck.

"Have you strained your back?"

"I just need you, Jon."

"Where does it hurt?" John stammered.

"Why don't we stop this nonsense," she murmured huskily, "why don't you kiss me, Doctor?"

"Why don't I!"

John sighed, as he covered her mouth with his own and pulled her perfect figure towards him.

From a wild and uninhibited Twist party to a small town threatened by rising floodwaters, such is the pattern and tempo of this story, where love, passion and danger walk hand-in-hand.
