Lake Placid Redemption: A Jay Mountain Healing Novel Volume 2: The Jay Mountain Healing
Autor Douglass Powellen Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 aug 2020
John and Sarah leave for Lake Placid, and, on the emotionally stormy drive, discover that they love each other.
Hal Foss, an unwitting patient who had both hips replaced with mesh and nano-electronics inserts, feels unwell after his surgery. He seeks out the help of the Jay Mountain Healing Center, but has a seizure and lapses into a coma before he can even discuss his case. He is cared for in the ICU and only recovers after everything that is computerized is removed from his room, to the delight of the doctors and nurses caring for him. Multiple electrical, mechanical and computer glitches occur in the hospital and town with increasing frequency and severity, until Hal's implants start an electromagnetic pulse that disables everything electrical within two miles of Lake Placid. The town is evacuated, Mirror Lake becomes a toxic sludge, killing fish and birds, and the National Guard is called in. Multiple patients die from computerized medication pump failures. The hospital is evacuated except for patients who cannot be moved.
Will Williams suffers recurrent PTSD episodes due to the pulse and is cured by the Jay Mountain Healing staff including Marion, a monk-like adept, who meditates and discovers the cause of the town's destruction.
John and Sarah arrive in Lake Placid where her innocence is confirmed. A trap is set for Canig, still in pursuit of Sarah, by Bennie Grimm and Will who graduated from the Military Academy and did two tours in Iraq together. They are joined by the town philanthropist, Demian Listing, and the town Sheriff, Todd Wilkins.
Eventually, Canig is captured, the implants are removed from Hal Foss, curing him, and the town starts to heal. Demian Listing offers to pay all the debt that the hospital and small businesses have accumulated in the time the town had been evacuated and the hospital closed to business as usual. He enlists John to help him make reparations. Demian insists that the hospital reopen only after they agree to incorporate integrative medical practices and make the hospital a healing environment for the staff and patients. Demian meets with Jane, the hospital administrator, outlines all his goals for new proceedures at the hospital, and enjoys dinner, talking of changes he envisions. Sarah is given a new name--Elisabeth--in a naming ceremony directed by Marion. She begins a new start on her life while Canig is sentenced to life in prison and restitution to everyone he has harmed.

Notă biografică
Dr. Douglass N. Powell grew up in Central New York State, spending summers and falls with his father, brothers, uncles, and cousins, maintaining and then hunting from a rustic hunting camp on Jay Mountain, outside Lake Placid, New York. He learned the lore of the area listening to tales told by the elder camp members, mastered the arts of storytelling, hunting, woodsmanship, and hiking. While in college, he majored in Biology and Philosophy, becoming interested in Medicine and world philosophies related to healing. He brought this expansive world view to his medical studies and practice. For 35 years, he maintained a practice in Obstetrics and Gynecology, sustaining his interest in teaching after his 8-years stint as assistant professor at the Upstate Medical Center. Founder and director of the Health and Healing Center of Central New York, he treated patients and held seminars dealing with healing and integrative practices. Dr. Powell and his wife traveled to China to study Acupuncture, Peru to study Shamanism, to multiple sites throughout the U.S. to study Hypnosis and other body work techniques. Dr. Powell now blends a practice of Medical Acupuncture, Hypnosis, and Shamanism, and continues to see patients on a limited basis. He is a prior officer and board member of the American Academy of Medical Acupuncture. Dr. Powell works with the ACUS Foundation that teaches military physicians to provide Acupuncture to treat pain, addictions, and other conditions without medications, in our active duty military, retirees, and their families. The above experiences and trainings have ideally suited Dr. Powell to write powerfully about the Adirondacks, integrative medical techniques, and healing. He has learned to spin a great tale and incorporates healing modalities as a central theme of his series The Jay Mountain Healing Novels. Each delves with characters learning, healing, and segments of the healing process. His first published novel, On the Other Side of Death Mountain, deals with an escape from international terrorists, love blossoming, healing of a young girl from her chronic pain, and the traditions of the Adirondacks. His second novel, Lake Placid Redemption, deals with Lake Placid recovering from an electromagnetic pulse, finding love, healing of a man victimized by a rogue CIA agent, and the rebuilding of Lake Placid. The series comprises 8 volumes, the remainder to be published in the near future.
