Dark Victory

A woman of elegance faces a life-altering medical diagnosis, prompting her to choose between surrendering to her fate or embracing a courageous and dignified path as she navigates her remaining time.

At the pinnacle of youthful high society, Judith Traherne receives a devastating diagnosis from Dr. Frederick Steele: a brain tumor. Following surgery, she falls deeply in love with her doctor. However, Steele's prognosis is grim, and Judith's world begins to crumble as she struggles with the reality of her mortality.
