My guilty pleasure.

People often ask: “Why would a medical doctor write thrillers?”

Here’s the truth:
To paraphrase T.S. Eliot: Healthcare is "a wilderness of mirrors."
After decades in the medical world, I’ve seen and heard things I’ll never be able to share—because of doctor-patient privilege, confidentiality, or simply because some stories are too disturbing.

So what do I do?
I take a real medical scandal.
I dissect it.
I reassemble it into a story that grips, shocks, and makes you think.
Every thriller I write is grounded in fact—but you’ll never quite know where the truth ends and the fiction begins.

As Salman Rushdie said:
“When a baby is born, the first thing he asks for is love and care and food. When that is provided, he asks: Tell me a story.”

That’s what I do.
When facts become too frightening, fiction helps us face them.
What is your take?
