‘When a doctor writes a novel about the medical community cavorting with the mafia, would it be a work of fiction or would it be an attempt to showcase reality without the risk of backlash?’
‘THE SCALPEL' - Game Beneath is the first ever medical fiction in South Asia written by a senior Cardiologist with 30 years experience of working in premier hospitals.
A pretty Indian princess based in Paris, on a visit to India is intrigued by a mysterious character in a five-star hospital. His stealthy walk raises her suspicion. From thereon she trails him and exposes a criminal-terrorist-medical-mafia nexus. She finally comes face to face with the Prime Minister and the President of India.
The author takes the reader on a roller –coaster ride across Delhi, New York, London, Chicago, Sydney, Barcelona, and Istanbul. The narration is racy, language lyrical, violence chilling and romance subtle.
The author has filled the vacuum of thriller writing in India as was lamented by many in past. He has carried forward what Robin Cook started three decades back.
'THE SCALPEL' cuts across the veils of human greed, lust and lies. The pinnacle of the medical world is not necessarily adorned by the pious and the noble. The villains masquerade as angels and the angels face the risk of getting decimated.
If you are an avid book reader you shall see for yourself what a master-piece 'THE SCALPEL' is.
If you do not read books then you have to only read the first 4 pages. After that the story will take your over. You will not know how you reached the last page.
