Neurologist Turned Thriller Fiction Author

Gives Readers an Intriguing Insight into Medical and Political Worlds.

New York, NY, February 22, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Few authors are able to captivate readers with both international medical and political focus. Gil Snider does just that with his captivating thriller, Brain Warp: A Medical and Political Thriller. After many years of practicing neurology, Snider found himself eager for a change of pace. Snider, of Ukrainian descent, delved into fiction writing which gave him an opportunity to learn about the cultural heritage of his father and the people of Ukraine. Snider’s work provides intriguing medical and political insights, giving readers a new perspective.

The fictional book is a thriller based on many months of research and looks deep into Alzheimer’s disease, the relationships between sons and fathers, and Ukrainian society. Brain Warp is the gripping story of a New York City neurologist who gets entangled in a plot to poison the leader of a European nation. As Dr. Peter Branstead’s life and the lives of those he loves become endangered, his only choice is to travel overseas, directly into the conspirator’s den, where Dr. Branstead tries to foil devious plans while staying alive, all while the ruthless killer chases him over two continents.

“Although I enjoy the practice of medicine, I found that I needed a change of pace,” explained Snider. “At my wife’s suggestion, I picked up writing a medical thriller that I had begun a number of years earlier. Writing Brain Warp gave me the opportunity to learn about the cultural heritage of my father, who was born in Ukraine, and as a result, many of the characters were influenced by their fathers, for good or evil.”

Snider’s professional experience and research makes Brain Warp relevant to U.S. and international readers alike. With a captivating story line and lifelike characters, Snider pulls readers into an exciting and mysterious page turner.
