Welcome!
 
Thanks for dropping by my site. I’m Robert Thornton, former Coast Guardsman, retired family practitioner and author. I’m a writer of thrillers, interweaving medicine and science in the plots. They are fast paced adventures with flawed but determined characters designed to keep you on the edge of your seat.  Although written as page-turners, great for that summer beach read, on a deeper level my books address significant spiritual concerns such as sacrificial love and forgiveness.
 
My goal is to write novels that are fun and exciting but that also give the reader some food for thought. I hope you find my books enjoyable and informative.
 
Please, take a few moments to explore the website. And, if you have any comments or questions don’t hesitate to send me an e-mail.
