"Night Clinic" is a place for healing, an oasis in the midst of poverty and strife. Dr. Barnes and Nurse James are the caring professionals who treat an ever changing cast of bizarre and diverse characters; sufferers who come to their Clinic after struggling through this troubled world. Broken, beaten, sick or just tired they pass through the doors of this inner city clinic looking for a cure, a kind word and a helping hand. Ordinary folks, refugees, spies, super heroes, gangsters, monsters and so many others looking for simple medical care come to the clinic seeking to have their bodies, minds and souls mended. They have names like Evella, Goddess of the Night, Curley and Cupcake, Captain Surgery and Medusa. They suffer sore throats, heart attacks, stab wounds and even fleas. They all have one thing in common: they come to the "Night Clinic" looking for health, happiness and peace. The complete collection of "Night Clinic" short stories takes the reader into a world of medicine unlike any other and promises a wild ride on the road to health and well being.
