Private Duty Nurse

1946.

Cherry has returned from the war. She goes to a seance with her mother. Dr. Joe tells Cherry she needs to take it easy for a while to recover from the war so she takes on a job as a private duty nurse (well, relatively easy, I guess.)

She gets in a situation which is somewhat similar to the Mountaineer Nurse book where the people are rather backwards and unfriendly and don't trust doctors or medicines. She ends up then taking a job for elsewhere with a pianist who is very highly strung and very famous.

There's more seance-going and a mystery that involves blackmail. Cherry gets trapped by some crooks but manages to get away and the seance-going is tied into the mystery. It's an interesting and good book in the series.
