​Broken Bones and Betrayal: A Medical Thriller by Orthopedic Trauma Author Thomas Kelso

Picture
My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is Thomas Kelso, author of the book Fractured. Following medical school Dr. Kelso completed his residency in orthopedic surgery and served in the US Navy for nine years before entering civilian practice. He writes thrillers based on current innovations in medicine and science and continues to practice orthopedic surgery in Brunswick County, North Carolina. In my book review, I stated that Fractured is a medical thriller that will have you on the edge of your seat the entire read.

Join me in an invigorating chat with Thomas Kelso, the orthopedic surgeon turned gripping medical thriller writer. Tom's debut novel "Fractured" seamlessly weaves his vast experience as a Navy surgeon with the SEAL teams into an un-put-downable page-turner.

In our conversation, we dive into:
  • How Tom's real-life medical and military background shaped the authentic world of "Fractured" 
  • The cutting-edge stem cell research that inspired the novel's groundbreaking bone healing technology (and how close we are to this in reality!) 
  • Crafting a brilliant but relatable protagonist in Dr. Mark Thurman, an orthopedic surgeon with a complex past 
  • Building romantic tension amidst the high-stakes thrills (without alienating thriller/suspense readers)
  • Tom's writing process as a "pantser" who loves the organic discovery of story 
  • A sneak peek at his upcoming historical fiction novel featuring a trailblazing female surgeon in WWI 

​As a fellow lover of heart-pounding medical thrillers with characters I'd want to befriend IRL, chatting with Tom was an absolute delight. His passion for crafting stories that both entertain and educate shines through. I can't wait to see what medical marvels and edge-of-your-seat adventures he dreams up next!
Ready to have your mind blown by the future of medicine while biting your nails? Scrub in with "Fractured" and the whole Mark Thurman series. Purchase on Amazon: Paperback or ebook

P.S. When you finish an amazing book, don't forget to shout it from the rooftops (or at least leave a review)! Those gold stars mean the world to authors.
