About the author
Carol Cooper
40 books95 followersI've been making up stories for as long as I can remember. My first novel ONE NIGHT AT THE JACARANDA, in which a motley group of Londoners look for love, was described by The Sun newspaper as 'a blinder of a tale.'
HAMPSTEAD FEVER tells the story of six intertwined lives one hot summer as emotions reach boiling point. Think ‘Love, Actually’, but in a heatwave.
Now you can also read THE GIRLS FROM ALEXANDRIA, my historical novel set in Egypt. It's the frank and sometimes funny story of a woman searching for her missing sister, her lost memory, and her family origins.
In my other life, I'm a family doctor and the author of a string of health books.

Highly relevant stuff
Beautiful book of cases. During my 4 week long GP placement, I had to ride the train for 1 hour to get there. I would go through a number of these cases each time. Lots of useful tidbits and I actually came across most of the cases in my placement with real patients!
