Читать книгу Who's Killing the Doctors? - Alex Swift - Страница 3

Over many months I struggled with the many scattered facts, events and people present in this story trying to give it an acceptable, enticing, comprehensive format as a single work, even a thriller. While many of the events described here did occur, the times,characters and places were diverse, even skewed, but interconnected. Started as a personal family saga, a true story much of it biographical, it soon acquired a wider base and a new, fighting scope. At some point, aiming for the large readership of those who enjoy fiction, I went for a novel,introducing color and twist to actual events and cases, adding more, and gluing them together as one work, still controversial, even contentious. This ’Who’s’ Killing the Doctors?’is based in the same historical data and atmosphere described in my non-fiction picture book ‘FRANKLY,’ now as a fictionalized prequel, a novel, its 2nd half embellished by imagination and by… wishful thinking!

This novel Who’s Killing the Doctors?, tells of doctors in trouble with the US Establishment, many eliminated out of practice by a powerful and cruel process, medical organizations and complacent Courts. As an exposé of sad, questionable public policies -of doctors sackings, of arguable courtroom proceedings- it shows how difficult is to uncover and simply tell the true facts, what’s going on, and why I have written it as a novel with a pseudonym, as a Prequel to the non-fiction FRANKLY. Towards the end, the reader will see the effort of few brave men and women trying -the beginnings of an uprise- to change ‘The System.’ They gather together -a few judges, doctors and a large, stung family- to alter The Establishment, to change The System into a more humane, fair and kind process. Will they succeed?

You’ll be meeting first three crucial characters, a judge and two doctors you will like; and you will see the first “killing” soon. Bear with me!…
