The Cuts That Cure by Arthur Herbert

The Cuts That Cure by Arthur Herbert

From its attention-grabbing first sentence, The Cuts that Cure is a truly extraordinary novel as Arthur Herbert- a surgeon himself- shows why he is one of the most exciting new voices in the suspense genre.

A dark and deeply chilling novel with memorable characters and vivid descriptions about a burned-out surgeon and a small-town sociopath who orbit each other until their paths cross in the underbelly of the Texas border. (Joel Shulkin, M.D., author of Adverse Effects)

Alex Brantley is a surgeon whose desperation to start a new life outside of medicine leads him to settle in a sleepy Texas town close to the Mexican border, a town that has a dark side. Its secrets and his own past catch up with him as traits he thought he'd buried in the deserts on the frontiers of the border rise up again to haunt him.

To the citizens of Three Rivers, Henry Wallis appears to be a normal Texas teenager: a lean, quiet kid from a good family whose life seems to center around running cross-country, his first girlfriend, and Friday night football. That Henry is a cultivated illusion, however, a disguise he wears to conceal his demons. Both meticulous and brutally cruel, he manages to hide his sadistic indulgences from the world, but with that success, his impulses grow stronger until one day when a vagrant is found murdered.

When Alex and Henry's paths cross, it starts a domino effect which leads to mangled lives and chilling choices made in the shadows along la frontera, where everything is negotiable.

Herbert, Arthur: - Arthur Herbert is a full-time burn and trauma surgeon with a master's in clinical research. He grew up in small-town Texas where he worked as a bartender, an oil rig worker, a landscaper at a trailer park, and a social worker before going to medical school. While he's won multiple awards for his expository writing, The Cuts that Cure is his first novel.
