Having escaped from what seemed like certain death in The Orkneys, Peter Sinclair's wings are now being severely clipped by his wife. Despite that, what set out to be simple and safe family holidays and straightforward leisure activities seem to have a way of turning into roller-coaster rides for Peter and those around him. In 'It's an Ill Wind' he is accused of raping and murdering a young woman in Fuerteventura; he faces several difficult encounters with officialdom in 'A Baltic Breeze'; in 'Not Wanted on Voyage' he is in danger of being drawn into the world of illegal immigrants; in 'That Sinking Feeling' he comes face-to-face with mortal danger underground; and in 'Chocks Away' he finally achieves a life-long ambition -for a short while.
