Those plans were complicated by the outbreak of World War II and the call of duty. Assigned to the HMS \u003ci\u003eWarspite\u003c\/i\u003e, a formidable 30,000-ton battleship, Surgeon Lieutenant O'Reilly soon found himself face-to-face with the hardships of war, tending to the dreadnought's crew of 1,200 as well as to the many casualties brought aboard. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eLife in Ballybuckebo is a far cry from the strife of war, but over two decades later O'Reilly and his younger colleagues still have plenty of challenges: an outbreak of German measles, the odd tropical disease, a hard-fought pie-baking contest, and a local man whose mule-headed adherence to tradition is standing in the way of his son's future. Now older and wiser, O'Reilly has prescriptions for whatever ails...until a secret from the past threatens to unravel his own peace of mind. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eShifting deftly between two very different eras, Patrick Taylor's latest Irish Country novel reveals more about O'Reilly's tumultuous past, even as Ballybucklebo faces the future in its own singular fashion.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"27th Letter Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67390733123629,"sku":"WHS-be83518bcf6e4da5bbc44f92dcc2e33c","price":23.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0673\/3588\/0749\/files\/original_dfe1484a-3ee6-494f-8274-2ab684ea1d04.jpg?v=1787346547","url":"https:\/\/27thletterbooks.com\/products\/irish-doctor-in-peace-and-at-war-1","provider":"27th Letter Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
