"Life is usually quiet in and around Mustard Creek in the Australian outback, with only routine cases of illness for Flying Doctor Jeremy Janes to cope with. But he faces a new problem when he has a patient an Aborigine stockman who claims to see a 'flying saucer', which he fears will return to carry him away. The Aborigine's fear spreads to the rest of the native community, and while Dr Janes is engaged in trying to calm them, another problem arises, that of an American trapped in an underground cave. The seemingly straightforward rescue operation is hampered by torrential rain ... and the 'flying saucer' puts in another appearance." -- Dust jacket.
