In the heart of Victorian London, a young and ambitious doctor's life takes an unexpected turn when he encounters a mysterious patient with a secret that could change everything. Dr. Edmund Luttrell, fresh out of medical school, dreams of making a name for himself in the bustling city of London. Eager to prove his skills, he enters the prestigious St. Bartholomew's Hospital with enthusiasm, hoping to contribute to the cutting-edge medical practices of the era. Little does he know that his journey is about to become a mesmerizing dance of fate and passion. As his first day at the hospital dawns, Dr. Luttrell is drawn to a peculiar case—a young woman named Eliza, who arrives shrouded in enigma. Afflicted by an ailment she refuses to disclose, Eliza captures the doctor's intrigue, and he becomes determined to unlock the secrets of her condition. Yet, the more he delves into her world, the more he finds himself entangled in a web of emotions he never thought possible. Amidst the medical challenges and societal norms of the time, a forbidden romance blossoms between doctor and patient.

Set against the backdrop of a rapidly changing society, Doctor Luttrell's First Patient is a gripping tale of love, ambition, and the unbreakable spirit of those who dare to defy convention.
