-- Dr. Paulo Reyes knows firsthand
about life in the emergency room. Born in San Joaquin Valley, he s a
practicing Emergency Room doctor in Los Angeles with 25 years experience in
ER medicine and internal medicine and a first responder for one of the
busiest cities in California. That s why when he decided to write a book
about a smallpox threat in a California ER, it was a natural fit.

The book, Sledgehammer (ISBN #097713870-4, Virtual Word Publishing) is a
gripping medical thriller about a terrorist who comes into a Los Angeles ER
with symptoms of smallpox. Plans are for terrorists to spread the
particularly aggressive form of smallpox; Sledgehammer Smallpox, into
several sports arenas, airports and shopping malls to maximize its deadly
effects.
In Sledgehammer, the lead character, Max Kroose, an intuitive ER
physician who suspects the bioterrorism plot but is faced with convincing
the hospital administration and the public health care system about the
presence of this deadly disease and the need to vaccinate the American
public. It s a page turning, stay-up-all-night and finish it book that has
received numerous 5 star reviews including those from Midwest Review,
Heartland Review and American Reporter. In fact, Joe Shea of the American
Reporter states, Sledgehammer" is a gripping, powerful portrait of an
American emergency room physician encountering the "index" case of a
national bioterrorist attack by Islamic terrorists It is probably the best
bio-warfare thriller of the dozen-odd I've read in the past 10 years.
In reality, how big a threat is smallpox? Dr. Reyes believes there exists
a real danger today, especially with the rising tensions in the Middle East
and the fear of biochemical threats from terrorists. Dr. Reyes supports
voluntary vaccinations to protect us from smallpox bioterrorist attacks and
