Bringing a new life into the world is a beautiful experience. Unless it's in the middle of the worst storm to hit Norfolk for decades, and you're trapped in a remote, rundown cottage hospital, where the matron believes it's still the nineteen-fifties!

A pre-Christmas get-together at Fern Cottage turns into a panic-filled dash to the hospital at Kings Lynn for Celia, Jack, Daisy and Aidan.

They don't make it.

As the crazy storm brings down trees all around them, forced to make a last-gasp detour along a tiny wooded lane, their prayers are answered. Or so they think.

Through the lashing rain they spot a tiny, private cottage hospital. With Celia in acute pain, there's no choice.

That's when the problems really begin...

Meanwhile, back in Great Wiltingham...

With all four members of the HDA otherwise occupied, Doris and Maisie take it upon themselves to keep the detective agency running. By an unfortunate quirk of fate they accept a case, and there's no one else to handle it except the Terrible Twosome!

It's just a simple job. The kind that can be wrapped up in a few hours.

Or maybe it's not...

Enjoy!
