About this listen

Dr. Richard Atkins and Dr. Monica Gray suspect that the newest surgical robot AI, is intentionally injuring patients on the OR table when it judges them to be bad for society – rapists and murderers, but also billionaires and politicians.

Can Atkins and Gray prove the AI is acting maliciously? Will the hospital and the manufacturer listen to them if it risks billions in corporate profits? The world’s best surgeons and computer programmers struggle to regain control of the operating room before it costs them their jobs, their reputations, and their lives.

In 2050, all doctors use robots equipped with AI to perform complex surgical procedures. When the AI receives a powerful upgrade, devastating accidents begin to happen to patients on the operating table – but, curiously, only those with a checkered past.

Based on the real surgical robots of today, this science fiction medical thriller predicts how powerful these devices will become in the near future.

If you like House and Grey’s Anatomy mixed with Ex Machina and iRobot, you will love The Surgeon in the Mirror.

Reader Reviews:
“I could not put it down. Exciting thriller with interesting characters, technical robotic information and medical ethics dilemmas, as well as larger theology discussions. This is a book that has everything I love: sci-fi, technical medical-computer jargon, ethics, and multifaceted characters you care about. The dialogue by the characters is also so important in books I find fascinating. The author does an excellent job with believable, enjoyable characters, using higher vocabulary and common responses, as called for. PLEASE WRITE THE SEQUEL! I want to know what happens to these characters.” - Endocrinology MD and Professor, University of Rochester Medical Center

“Smith has used his extensive background in surgical robotics and technology to create this fictional masterpiece” - Medical Director, Baylor University Medical Center

“Ripped from the headlines just this week, A.I. is coming and it’ll look something like the world R.D.D. Smith has created” - Senior Manager, NASA Kennedy Space Center
