This medical mystery novel features an idealistic young physician-to-be who loses her idealism after a series of overpowering events

intervene to rob her of everything she loved.

Who is Ellen Goodman? Is she the kind, empathetic obstetrician who has delivered thousands of babies? Or is she the greedy baby

broker who sells the babies of poor, teenage girls to the highest bidder? Or, perhaps, is she a woman capable of even darker acts?

Only you the reader can make that judgment.

The story's target audience is comprised of fiction readers—medical personnel, midwives, fathers, mothers (married and single), lawyers—anybody that has given birth, is pregnant, delivered a baby, considered adoption or abortion as a possible solution, must steal, buy, borrow and then read "Dedicated Doctor" by Shawn Graves and Don Canaan.

Detective Liz Roberts, who we previously met in "Dutiful Daughter" (2011) will unravel the truth and uncover seventy years worth of secrets to discover a complicated tale of profound love between two people forbidden by law to be together because of the color of their skin. It is a tale of great sacrifice...and of greater evil.

Meanwhile, Liz Roberts will also unearth a long-buried secret in her own family. A secret that will shake the foundations of her world.
