Newcomers arrive on the Nelson Mandela Medical Space Station continuously: ship crews, new medical staff, casualties in cryopods, and occasionally, the unexpected or the unwelcome. When a strange ship called the Inferno, docks at the station, offloading six patients in cryopods, it at first garners little attention. But then a series of catastrophic events occur that threaten the lives of everyone on board the Nelson Mandela and beyond. With Bud destroyed, can Dr. Grace Lord save the day?

Autorenporträt
Having survived ten broken bones and three torn ligaments from sports such as downhill skiing, ice hockey, soccer, horseback riding, whitewater kayaking, whitewater canoeing, tennis, and simply hiking, I have decided to slow down a little and only continue with the hiking and skiing (but no more black diamond runs!). Sitting at a computer typing seems less physically traumatic than all the sports, and in my mind I can have just as much adventure! I have been a researcher in freshwater biology, cellular biology, and neurophysiology. I have published in The Journal of Cell Biology and Brain Research. I now work as a surgical assistant in the operating room. For over 20 years I worked as a family physician in a small rural town. The ideas for Welcome to the Madhouse, a medical science fiction thriller, have come from my experiences in the office and in the operating room. There has never been a dull moment in all my years working as a physician. I wanted to capture that essence of never knowing what was going to come in the front door. I hope that is obvious in my science fiction writing. When I am not assisting in elective or emergency surgery, I am writing the next science fiction thriller in the series or creating collages. I am currently working on Book Five of the medical science fiction series as well as a YA Prequel involving Hiro Al-Fadi. It, too, will be a science fiction thriller, but before Hiro becomes a surgeon. I have been writing for as long as I can remember, though only now that my children are grown do I have the time to focus on publishing my writing. When I need a break from the writing and work, I paint and have shown my award winning dragon collages at the World Fantasy Convention and at Ad Astra.
