- Libro 1 de 1: The Chasing Mercury Toxic Trilogy
An epileptic Black ballerina and a Powwow dancer whistleblower journalist meet in the Montreal Airport. They are both scheduled to perform in Berlin, 1973 Cold War Berlin. During the transatlantic crossing their love evolves. On a long lay over in Zurich, he stuns her by depositing many hundreds of thousands of dollars into his Swiss bank account, to which he adds her name with no true explanation. Is she an accomplice or is this just love in the time of mercury poisoning?Chasing Mercury is a soaring cross cultural, romantic-suspense-memoir, about families devoted to human and environmental rights. The novel honors the 2017 ratification of the United Nations Minamata Convention on Mercury, and its going into force as international law. Chasing Mercury is the first of a series of three books in the Chasing Mercury Toxic Trilogy.

Acerca del autor
September Williams is an American physician-writer, bioethicist and filmmaker. All her work focuses on promoting resilience for people who are ill, aging, dying, or stressed by environmental and humanitarian violation. Her first novel is Chasing Mercury, a romantic-suspense-memoir about families involved in human and environmental rights. It is the first in a series of three books in the Chasing Mercury Toxic trilogy. Dr. Williams' nonfiction writing is about film, bioethics and health disparities. She is a member the National Writers Union (AFLCIO/UAW 1981), an affiliate of the International Federation of Journalists, and the American Society for Bioethics and Humanities. Though raised in Los Angeles and the San Francisco Bay Area, September is a graduate of the University of Winnipeg Collegiate Division and has a Bachelor of Science in Zoology from the University of Manitoba, Canada. She attended Creighton University School of Medicine, and completed internal medicine residency at Cook County Hospital, Chicago. Dr. Williams holds three post graduate fellowships, the ASPEN (American Society of Enteral and Parental Nutrition) Clinical Fellow in surgical hyperalimentation; the Lowell T. Coggleshall Fellow at the University of Chicago MacLean Center for Clinical Medical Ethics; and the American College of Geriatric Medicine / HRSA Clinical Geriatrics Fellow at the University of California, San Francisco. A significant concentration of Dr. Williams' clinical work has been in acute care, emergency medicine and palliative care. Public medical facilities have been her primary venues of practice in Chicago, Boston, New Mexico, Mazimbu - Morogoro Tanzania, and San Francisco. While at the University of Chicago, MacLean Center for Clinical Medical Ethics, September was particularly encouraged to continue writing by the late philosopher and author, Stephen Toulmin. With him, she explored how universal stories influence peoples' expectations of medicine and science, autonomy and justice-particularly when adapted to screen. Dr. Williams subsequently learnt her film craft in the screenwriting and directing MFA program at Columbia College, Chicago and at Boston University, while also working in an inner city trauma center. She was a National Endowment for the Humanities Institute Fellow in Black Film, at the Zora Neal Hurston Center for the Documentary. Dr. Williams is a co-editor, author, and reviewer of books, articles and films related to medical and bioethical issues. Focused on writing, Dr. September Williams retired from the San Francisco City and County's Laguna Honda Hospital-'God's Hotel'. September has two millennial adult children and lives in Marin County, California, where she dances, open water rows the San Francisco Bay, and writes.
