About this title

Synopsis

New Novel Pits Small-Town Doctor Against Small-Time Mob

MIDNIGHT ROUNDS by Richard Greene

In Richard Greene’s new novel, Midnight Rounds, Charlie Davids, a young Emergency Room physician, spends his days and many nights working at a small regional hospital in Berkshire County, Massachusetts. The staff at Fairview Hospital is like a family to Charlie until the day he finds himself an unwilling recruit of the Springfield Mob. His colleagues know something is wrong, but for their own protection Charlie can’t tell them what’s going on. He can’t even tell his girlfriend, Patty, who wants a relationship not interrupted by late night secret absences and prolonged silent spells. While the action moves back and forth between the beautiful woods and lakes of the Berkshires, and the seedy back alleys and Mob safe houses of Springfield, Massachusetts, the reader is forced to share Charlie’s ethical dilemma of whom to take care of, whom to protect, and how to save his own life.

About the Author

Dr. Greene worked in the emergency department at Fairview Hospital in Great Barrington, Massachusetts. It was there that he began writing this novel, which is set primarily in Great Barrington and Dalton. The book is about a young doctor who did his residency at Berkshire Medical Center and is working in the ER at Fairview Hospital, dreaming of his own private practice. Although the author denies it, we are left wondering if some part of this book isn t actually based on real life experience. In 1990 Dr. Greene started his private practice as a dermatologist in the Berkshires. He lives with his wife, who is also a physician, and their teenage son.
