@billyporter Seems are reading preferences overlap quite a bit. F Paul Wilson was an MD in New York when ne began authoring, he's a few thrillers related to medical science, quite a bit of so so science fiction, but really hit his stride with Repairman Jack. That series has just enough outre, supernatual/occult leaning to keep the narrative rolling. Plus, I like the hero's name, thou I admit some degree of bias.
