Felicity's young brother Trevor had always come first with her - and never more so than now, when he had developed an eye disease which might well make him blind within a very short time. So she was thrilled when she got the chance of a job at the clinic on the tiny island of Isola Rossa in the Adriatic where Burne Mallory was the eye specialist - and she and Trevor set off with new hope in their hearts.
