Bill Heine, well known for his work on BBC Oxford and the iconic shark through his roof in Headington, and as a columnist for the "Oxford Mail", was diagnosed with leukaemia and has recorded his progress and set backs in this witty, sardonic, troubling and highly idiosyncratic book. Part of a ground-breaking trial with a new approach to the disease, Bill unsentimentally reveals his inner thoughts, the reactions of others, and the way that, as the book title says, he is behind enemy lines without a map.
