Synopsis

"…….a thriller that opens along the lines of Robin Cook; but with more social and psychological issues, which are explored in greater, more satisfying detail. Its progression from a seemingly singular experience to humanity’s greatest catastrophe creates a fine cross-genre experience between medical novel, thriller, and sci-fi that keeps readers on their toes……" — D. Donovan, Midwest Book Review Gabriel, Rachel, Lester, Adonis and Charlotte; fictional characters whose lives mirror modern day challenges. Who will defy the odds? What will happen to bring them together?Novelist and Gastroenterologist Michael Weisberg, M.D. crafted the idea for In The End from a routine procedure. Before putting patients to sleep for their colonoscopies, he asks them if they have any questions. Many comically reply, "Doc, what's the meaning of life?" He always replies that this question cannot be answered because there is no one meaning to life, but instead the question should be, what gives meaning to your individual life?About the AuthorMichael Weisberg was born and raised in wild and wonderful Huntington, West Virginia. As an undergraduate at Vanderbilt University he studied English literature and linguistics. He graduated from Baylor College of Medicine in 1985 before finishing a residency in Internal Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine. He then completed a fellowship in gastroenterology at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical School in Dallas. He has been in private practice in Plano, Texas, since 1991. His first novel, The Hospitalist (2014), was a prescient and humorous thriller about the practice of medicine in modern times. In 2016, Dr. Weisberg gave a TedTalk on How the Art of Medicine Became a Business in the 21st Century. He has written many short stories and poems, some of which can be viewed on his website at michaelfweisberg.com. He and his wife, Sheryl, live in Dallas and have three children - Reid, Brent, and Carly.
