The Cutting Season

Finalist â€“ 2007 Book of the Year Award by ForeWord Magazine
Finalist â€“ 2007 USA Best Book Award

Dr. Xenon Pearl cuts brains for a living, and he's as good as it gets. His direct, sometimes abrasive style is forgivable in light of his skill with a scalpel, and tempered by his compassion for his patients and his friends. He is a dutiful son to his widower father, a doting grandchild to a grandfather who was once a rabbi, and he has even met the girl of his dreams. Everything is on-track for this medical golden boy.
The other side of this motorcycle riding, brilliant doctor faÃ§ade is a side that Xenon (aka Zee) hides even from his father. Secretly trained since childhood by his Chinese nanny, Wu, Tie Mei--herself a martial warrior of shadowy lineage--Dr. Xenon Pearl is also a martial arts expert who loves the sword as much as the scalpel.
Now his past is showing up to literally haunt him. His dead teacher reappears, reminding him that he has lived many lives beforeâ€¦
In this life, Dr. Xenon Pearl must use his skill â€“ to defend the innocent, defeat the Russian mob, protect the woman who loves him, and stay one step ahead of a smart cop; he is set to lose everything unless he can cut just one more time.
In the spirit of martial arts tradition, The Cutting Season brings the traditional Asian martial arts novel to our shores, exploring human conflict, desires, and the search for moral certainties.
Do no harm... Honor your teacher... Cut without mercy...
