by Bob Bell (Author)

Passionate praise for this inspiring medical and legal drama!

"With 'Jonah K.', Dr. Bob Bell firmly establishes himself as a master storyteller. Bob weaves an inspired fictional tapestry, representing both the best and worst of the human condition. From the tragic legacy of residential schools and the crushing politics of academic healthcare, characters emerge full of courage, passion and resilience. This is a brilliantly written third book from a talented novelist. You won't forget these intriguing individuals or this stirring story." Paul Alofs, Former CEO Princess Margaret Cancer Foundation and award-winning author of "Passion Capital"

Jonah Kay is a remarkably successful Bay Street lawyer despite living with the impact of intergenerational trauma caused by a notorious Canadian residential school. Dr. Brynn Allard is a brilliant young orthopaedic surgeon, increasingly frustrated by the misogyny of university surgical practice. This legal and medical drama follows Jonah and Brynn through the corporate murkiness of cannabis legalization, the challenge of healthcare delivery in remote northern communities, and nefarious practices in the international diamond trade. Readers will be delighted as Jonah's and Brynn's paths intersect along the James Bay coast - one of the most consequential places in the history of our northern land.

"Dr. Bob Bell's riveting and dramatic story has the reader living in the fast-paced mind of a heroic trauma surgeon. He captured the misogyny and biased treatment women surgeons face in a way that is both triggering and empowering." Dr. Carmen Quatman, MD, PhD, Orthopaedic surgeon-scientist

"Dr. Bob Bell is probably the only author today who can turn acute insights on the general topics of human nature, history, politics, capitalism, and specific topics of healthcare delivery, into page-turning stories that are both compelling and inspiring." Keith Ambachtsheer, Former Chair Princess Margaret Cancer Foundation and award-winning author.
