Dr. Wiley McCoy has a successful medical practice, movie-star good looks, and a substance abuse problem. When a young woman dies on his operating table, his life and career are destroyed. Romulo DaVinci is a conniving Voodoo shaman with supernatural powers to resurrect the dead.
The disgraced doctor and the medical adventurer are thrown together on a gonzo journey through the seminal events of the 1960ʼs including the JFK assassination, the Apollo moon landing, and the Manson killings. Along the way, they commandeer a U.S. nuclear submarine and encounter real-life characters from bonkers plutocrat Howard Hughes to ruthless Haitian leader Papa Doc Duvalier. The Thresher Ghost is a carnival ride through a tumultuous decade- its music, its conspiracies and its scandals-as McCoy and DaVinci cross oceans and medical boundaries in a duel between science and magic.
"A richly imagined weave of magical realism and period potboiler... an entertaining, atmospheric take
on a bizarro version of the ʻ60ʼs." - KIRKUS REVIEWS
"A powerful historical thriller... engrossing, mercurial, and hard to put down." - MIDWEST BOOK REVIEW
