Thomas Aldren built his life on steady hands — until MS takes his and everything he built with it: his practice, his marriage, his sense of who he is. What's left is a man who has to relearn what steadiness even means.

 

The final novel in A Surgeon's Reckoning trilogy follows Thomas from the wreckage of his La Jolla career to a Cuban clinic in the year 2000, where a young medical student gives him back the one word he thought he'd lost for good. A story about the kind of steady that has nothing to do with a scalpel.
