Summary
He survived the war, only to find himself fighting new and more challenging battles on the home front. It's 1946 and a post-war period of hope and expectation is dawning across Europe, except, that is, in the Scottish town of Tannochbrae. Dr. John Finlay has left behind the senseless bloodshed and death that darkened his stint in the Royal Army Medical Corps to return to his old life in that small town. Finlay's homecoming is not what he expects. His irascible colleague, Dr. Cameron is unchanged -- just older -- but their once-thriving medical practice has become rundown. His fiancée has given up waiting for him. Petty politics, poverty and ignorance still infect the town, as does a deadly outbreak of disease. As Finlay struggles to treat the frailities and suffering of his patients, he finds himself called upon to treat their ailing hearts as well
