Book Description:

September 15, 2000
Dr. Robert Jules and Dr. Simon Pierce are pioneers in the newly developing field of lobotomy, so when Harry Morgan comes to them suffering from severe depression, they see a chance to hone their skills while helping a patient recover. Pierce, a power-hungry egomaniac, convinces Harry that he must have the procedure to survive. After the operation is performed, Pierce is still not happy. He proceeds to take his inexperience one step further by attempting the crudest of operations called The Ice Pick Technique. This leads to countless lies, cover-ups and, most tragically, murder.
