Debut Novel by
John R. Hewson

​Daniel Corbett is playing piano in a Toronto restaurant during Sunday brunch and dreaming of his daughter, who just turned fourteen but whom he hasn’t seen for a decade. That’s because Corbett isn’t just a piano player. He’s also a parolee, a former heart surgeon who, ten years before, was convicted of slitting his wife’s throat.

"The theme, says Hewson, is that family is more about how you relate to people than how you are related to them."

Who is John R. Hewson

Dr. JR Hewson (“JR”) is a retired academic anesthesiologist and pioneer in Critical Care Medicine (CCM) who has done it all—clinical practice, teaching, research, and founding a worldclass intensive care unit.

But there’s another side to JR, a creative side. Over the years, he has written three novels and a two-act play. In recent times, he’s become an award-winning actor in community theatre.

​JR is also Burlington's best dressed retiree according to the Bay Observer. He is never seen without his three piece suit and fedora!
