About the Book

Holiday SOS is Doctor Ben MacFarlane's story. His job is to bring people back to Britain after holiday disasters, gap year crises, embarrassing incidents on business trips and all the other things that can go wrong when we head off overseas. Follow Ben as he grabs his medical bag and flies to pick up the pieces after another holiday emergency. Dramatic, hilarious and wildly unexpected, emergency medicine doesn’t just take place in intensive care wards – it can happen just across the aisle on your next flight. ebook icon Audio book icon
