Have you ever had to decide what to do with a very large dead body on a Mexican beach, or an unidentified corpse by a Devonian cow shed when the herd is due in for milking? And how would you react if one of your patients was abducted by aliens? This is a blackly funny account of one GP's daily round. From coping with the suicide of a colleague to the unusual whereabouts of a jar of Colman's mustard, the story follows this rural doctor's misguided attempts to make sense of the career in which he has unwittingly found himself.
