The third novel in a thrilling trilogy. In 1936, a stroke of good fortune gains Ed Hunston entry into the hallowed cloisters of Oxford, where he befriends fellow medical student, Tom Shaw.

Six years later, with the country at war, the newly graduated duo arrive at the town of East Grinstead to work under the famed plastic surgeon, Archibald McIndoe.

One rainy afternoon, the reality of war hits Ed fully for the first time, and he is catapulted down a path he could never have expected to follow.

With a thirst for travel and adventure, teamed with the most accident-prone personality you can imagine, Nancy Pearce retells some of her most mortifying stories from around the globe – from ending up completely naked in public (on more than one occasion) to dramatically entangling a train of 16 camels around a road sign whilst working in Australia. Nancy has been brutally honest in Miss Adventures, exposing some of her deepest, darkest, most embarrassing experiences. This book gives you a few laughs (at her expense!). After all, laughter is one of the greatest gift s you can give in life!

The year is 1917. Many years have passed since Doctor John Hunston left England to escape the pain of losing his brother in the Boer War. Now there is a new war, one into which Hunston is reluctantly drawn. But before he leaves for Europe as part of the New Zealand Medical Corps, an old family secret is uncovered, resulting in a request he feels duty-bound to honour. In the trenches and carnage of the Western Front, he encounters a place where a promise - though easily made - is hard to keep.
