A surgeon who is loved and adored by his patients, later becomes a scheming crime artist due to a family tragedy. He meets a mountain climber as well!

Sometimes the best people can turn on you. This man goes from the top surgeon and colleague in his hospital to a criminal working for a presidental branch.

Jealousy is a key ingredient in this story.

The main character is extremely dislikable, but the author did do a good job at making us (the readers) want to finish the book. When I say "finish" I mean get it over with. That being said though, a lot of the characters were "paper thin" and had no other real development. There are way too many plot points that are just skipped over as well.

The book is pretty slow paced and the ending is not as fulfilling as it should be. It is very rushed and seems like something the "riverdale" writers would use on their show.

There are plenty of other books and stories with this type of plot that are 100x better than this.

I rate it a 2/5 stars
The characters are not likeable and have no actual arch to get through. Also, with the story being extremely slow paced alot of people might not want to finish it.
