Written with the black humour necessary to survive in such dangerous places, it covers adventures and misadventures in Bosnia, Kenya/South Sudan, Sierra Leone and Mozambique. From working under curfew in war-torn Sierra Leone to unexpectedly becoming the owner of the pet monkey in flooded Mozambique, the author also covers the difficulties in adjusting to everyday life when he returns home, while a valuable addition is the chapter from his wife on life at home without her partner and then adjusting to his return.
