In a quiet town called Patience, USA, an alien stranded on Earth hides by posing as a retired physician. When the town’s actual doctor dies, the alien—now adopted the name Dr. Harry—becomes the emergency medical caretaker. His desire for a quiet life is upended as he finds himself embroiled in a local murder investigation, blending elements of secrecy, fraud, and human–alien encounters. This comic‑book‑style crime story blends science‑fiction intrigue with a traditional police procedural, offering a unique twist on both genres.
