Set in a small New England hospital, the story follows Sue, the Superintendent of Nurses, and her husband Bill as they navigate the challenges of their new roles. With the help of her old friend Kit and fellow nursing students, Sue faces a lively mix of characters, including the mischievous Marianna and the cunning Jean Ditmarr. Amidst the chaos of hospital life, Sue grapples with her husband's demanding medical career and the peculiar mystery of disappearing sheets, making their journey anything but ordinary.

This story follows Sue Barton's first year as a probationer and student nurse. With her red hair and eager spirit, Sue is a likable character—direct, outspoken, and capable of both mistakes and warm attachments. Alongside her friends Kit and Connie, she endures the discipline and rigorous training essential for a good hospital nurse. Her love of humor leads to several amusing situations, including a tumble into the laundry chute and an entertaining encounter with a non-English-speaking Italian patient. Sue's warm heart and delightful spirit earn her friends among patients and even occasional praise from the stern staff. Her femininity notably influences Dr. Barry, a talented young intern. Sue's student years are filled with vibrant experiences: the tests she must pass to earn her cap, human errors that threaten her career, and a challenging encounter with a delirious patient that tests her courage. The story also captures the joy of Christmas in the hospital, where the entire staff comes together for a spontaneous celebration. Readers, whether aspiring nurses or not, will find a true depiction of life in a training school and a heartwarming friendship with a fun, joyous young woman.
