A Tea Doctor in Assam
Assam, 1951. When Dr Bob Irvine and his wife, Lydia, leave post‑war Britain for a remote tea estate in India, they expect heat, monsoons, and medical challenges — not espionage. But from the moment they meet Dan, the enigmatic plantation manager, and his pregnant wife, Katy, the atmosphere shifts. Something is simmering beneath the surface of this quiet colonial outpost.
What begins as a series of unsettling accidents soon darkens into something far more dangerous. Whispers of communist infiltration drift across the tea fields. Rumours of disappearances behind the Iron Curtain reach even this isolated corner of Assam. And when murder strikes, Bob and Lydia realise they have stepped into a deadly game — one whose reach extends far beyond India.

Caroline Allana Scott is a Glasgow‑based author whose six books span spiritualist history, memoir, and fiction. Her work preserves overlooked stories, including the letters of her father, Dr Allan Scott, from 1950s Assam.
Dr Allan Scott — A Brief Biography
Dr Allan Scott (1924–2004) served as Principal Medical Officer for Williamson Magor in Assam from 1951 to 1958. His work combined clinical practice with field research, particularly in malaria control, and his findings were published in The Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene in 1958. His letters from this period offer a rare first‑hand account of medical life on the tea estates during the final years of British India’s presence in the region.
Historical Significance
The diaries and letters provide a unique window into the medical, social, and cultural world of Assam’s tea estates in the 1950s. They document malaria control, monsoon conditions, smallpox scares, labour relations, and the daily realities of life in a remote and challenging environment.
Authenticity Statement
All material in The Assam Diaries is drawn from original letters and documents written by Dr Scott between 1951 and 1958. These papers have been carefully transcribed, edited, and contextualised to preserve their historical accuracy while making them accessible to modern readers.
SPIRITUALISM
'There have been a lot of books written which document the bravery of the pioneers, who fought for the freedom to follow their truth. This book is more than that. "Stories of the Pioneers" is a journey through the ages of mediumship and psychic practices that exist all over the world, showing the common link that has always existed. It covers the bravery of our pioneers, who wanted the truth of life eternal told, and the researchers, who started out wanting to disprove and discredit the truth but, ultimately, became our biggest supporters. The truth should always be told, and you should be prepared to listen.'

'This is a fascinating book that gives a deeply personal account of grief, loss and the journey of discovery of life beyond this one. It shows the intelligence of Spirit, and how they give evidence of life eternal. It never fails to inspire and humble me, the lengths our loved ones will go to, to bring each of us the hope we need. This books shows the true reason for Mediumship and Spiritualism - and the power of Spirit to heal and illuminate each of us, so that we can help others.'

'What a pleasure to read this book. In an era of celebrity mediumship, it is so refreshing to read about the dedication of a medium, whose only motive was to serve. This is a book that humbles the soul. It takes the reader through the process of a home circle and the dedication of the sitters, as they allow the Spirit World to blend for the trance state. It is a testament to the power of the home circle, where our true mediums built their relationship with that unseen world, learning together, to build an atmosphere of love and trust. This book is a must for those who want to learn the discipline of good mediumship and the beautiful relationship with those who walk with us.'

SOCIAL AND MEDICAL HISTORY
During my time as President of the Glasgow Association of Spiritualists, I compiled an absent healing list, which I still maintain.
WHAT IS ABSENT HEALING?
Put simply, it's sending out positive thoughts and energy to the Universe, and asking for love, care and healing to be sent to those (humans and animals) who need it. Absent healing works hand in hand with orthodox medicine, and since so many people have asked for healing for cancer, Cancer Research UK has become my obvious choice of charity.
I'd like to thank CANCER RESEARCH UK for all their research. My mother (photo to left) was also affected by cancer. She had breast cancer, and had a mastectomy when aged 80. However, when her other breast developed a malignant tumour, one small pill, taken daily, reduced the size of the tumour, and when she died in 2021, aged 98 years, it was from an unrelated illness.
I also have friends and acquaintances who have recovered from cancer because of the research carried out. Sadly, some have passed away.
KILTWALK
It is so important to keep funding the research, and I am proud to say that I do the annual Glasgow Kiltwalk, and have managed to raise a lot of funds for CANCER RESEARCH UK.
THANK YOU, CANCER RESEARCH, FOR YOUR WORK, AND THANK YOU, READERS, FOR YOUR DONATIONS!
