Into the Ether

by David Sherer

Adrian Wren M.D. is a man on the cusp of middle age, burnt out on medical practice, bitter about his alimony payments and resentful of his pig of a boss. A chance doctor/patient encounter with a powerful government official enables him to glean valuable, privileged information, which he uses to turn his leveraged savings into a fortune. In the process, he falls for his financial advisor, settles an old score with an attorney nemesis, and skips the country under a new identity. Once on his new dream yacht, with the help of two Irish sailors, he sails to the Mediterranean where he enjoys life as a newly rich man-until he is betrayed, hunted down, and returned to the United States. To his surprise, he is offered an alternative to prosecution, a deal involving the President of the United States and connected to a crime committed decades before in the slums of Boston.

I wanted to like this but it was a bit contrived and simplistically written ( except for the medical terminology). Loved the DMV accurate references. At least the reader knew early on that the main character was a scoundrel. It had some decent moments but overall pretty average.

Liked the local connections with Bethesda.
