As Dr. Howard Sterling rode along that wintry night thinking of dark-eyed, spoiled Rose, he was interrupted by a shout of horror from the chauffeur. The young physician looked out of the car to see, lying in a snow bank, the lovely, ethereal figure of a girl. A moment later he knelt beside her looking for signs of life, and reassured by faint breathing, rushed her to his hospital. In the days that followed, as Dr. Sterling worked to save the unknown girl, he found himself wondering what tragedy had taken away her will to live.
