Surgeon's Choice

By Richard L. Mabry, MD

Description:

Dr. Ben Merrick and his fiancé, Rachel Gardner, can’t get her divorced parents to stay in the same room, much less attend their wedding together. He is also looking over his shoulder expecting more trouble from a very senior surgeon who has shown he is still smarting from a previous dust-up. Ben doesn’t know if a series of mishaps and accidents are caused by a disgruntled patient’s relatives or represent more from the older surgeon.

Then his prospective father-in-law approaches him, needing money for reasons Ben can’t fathom. Rachel has an idea about the cause of the request, but she doesn’t want to accept it. Then, when the deaths begin, Ben and Rachel begin to wonder if they can escape unscathed…and alive.

Book Takeaway:

Problems affect us all (including physicians), and we have to depend on God sometimes when there seems to be no way out.

Why the author wrote this book:

The opioid epidemic is widespread, and virtually every family is affected. I wanted to show how God deals with those involved--the believer, the unbeliever, the seeker.
