After a tour of duty overseas, the eccentric character Augustus Tibbetts (known as "Bones" to his associates) returns to London to embark on civilian life. In a series of loosely connected but consistently hilarious tales and vignettes, Bones inadvertently stumbles into a series of improbable but exciting adventures and too-good-to-be-true business ventures.
