Really terrific book and audio performance. So much goes on in repatriation of sick and injured patients. I’lll watch more carefully on air flights.

Great book and performance

I found this book very interesting and had a hard time putting it down. The only person who might not enjoy it is someone who does not like to hear someone is struggling for there life and the remedies that are necessary to help the person.

entertaining listen

Excellent and varied stories. There are a fair number of medical emergencies depicted so if you are sensitive I would skip it.

Great story. Well-narrated!

Loved this book! I never thought of the job these doctors and nurses do, of flying to retrieve patients all over the world to bring them back to Great Britain. Great stories throughout the book! Narrator was a wonderful story teller, as well.

Exciting stories!
