In this engaging narrative, the Yorkshire veterinary team navigates challenges both personal and professional. James struggles with war trauma while dealing with Tristan’s irresponsible conduct, highlighting the pressures faced by those in difficult roles. Meanwhile, Richard faces an important career decision, balancing his aspirations with loyalty to Skeldale House. The arrival of pygmy-goat droppings for analysis introduces humor and charm, culminating in the discovery of a health issue. A visit to the Grantley estate features amusing goat antics and introduces Miss Grantley, adding a touch of nostalgia.
James is run-down, secretly because of war trauma, but in the more immediate sense, also because Tristan is taking him out drinking a bunch.
Richard is very cagey about discussing this offer and then about accepting it (because he loves Skeldale House and everyone in it, and WHY WOULDN'T HE?).
