Psychological Thriller Mind Games: Unraveling the Brain's Twisted Tales with Author Gary Simonds
My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is Gary Simonds, author of the book Death's Pale Flag. Gary is a highly experienced neurosurgeon and former head of an academic neurosurgery program at Virginia Tech/Carilion Clinic. He is a professor and teaches regularly at the Virginia Tech School of Neuroscience and the Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine.

Gary has written and spoken extensively on the topics of neuroscience, medical school admissions, humanism, medical socio-economics, medical ethics, burnout, personal well-being, of spirituality, death and the interface between science and religion. Known for his compassion and sense of humor, he also writes fiction and is an accomplished and entertaining storyteller.

Born in New Jersey, Gary lived in New Jersey; England; Washington DC; Denver; Danville, Pennsylvania; and Roanoke, Virginia. He currently lives in beautiful Black Mountain, North Carolina.

In my book review, I stated that Death's Pale is a psychological thriller that stuck with me from the first page. The main character, Ryan, is a brain surgeon, so some of the medical aspects really resonated with me as my husband and I deal with his brain cancer diagnosis. However, I found it amazing what Ryan does as a trauma neurosurgeon. And since the author is a neurosurgeon, it's very precise!

But the story is not that of an ordinary neurosurgeon and his patients. Instead, it's about a highly educated man who begins to see ghosts – some from a long time ago and some much more recent. Why are they contacting him? What will his colleagues and family think? Are they real or is he laughing?

I loved this story and was sad to see it end. Gary did a magnificent job with character development. A must read, even if the psychological thriller isn't usually on your TBR!
