The life of Jethro Postlethwaite, as his recently-started diary will testify, has suddenly become very, very complicated...and very, very painful. Having been kidnapped, locked in a dark cell and subjected to the unwelcome (and agonising) attentions of a Bodaslod Duelling Gauntlet, he is now a fugitive, on the run from THEM, sharing his head with someone else's memories, and not looking forward at all to the prospect of having nanites injected into his eyes. It seems like giving a lift to an alien was not such a good idea after all. On the plus side though, he's about to uncover the truth about the lives of every man, woman and child on the planet...at Peterhead...and he will get to do this whilst travelling in a very nice camper van.
