Goodreads Review This book follows a man named Griff who is a cardiologist working in an old mental institution, turned into a hospital. To make things more creepy, Griff has a problem with lying, manipulating and threatening his way to the top. Even if it means hurting people along the way. His goal is to make a drug that would change the health of many peoples hearts. But at what cost?

This is a dark thriller that has many twists and turns you just don't see coming. I thought it was cool that Richard Tenney used his experience from his medical doctor's background. In his bio, he even says that some of the story is factual. I wonder which parts. I would rate this book a 5/5 for his thrill and excitement Richard poured into this book. —Elizabeth (Stuffed Shelves)

A New Medical Thriller and Suspense — Not with My Brain You Don't by Richard D. Tenney, M.D.

Doctor Griff Wooden, is a tall, handsome, schmoozer who lives by himself in a high-rise condo overlooking Chicago’s Lake Shore Drive. He practices cardiology in the oldest hospital in Chicago, Chicago General Mercy Hospital. Previously a mental hospital, it’s a quaint, soft red-brown structure with ornate trim that seems out of date among the new buildings in a glitzy health-maintenance plaza.

The look of the hospital suggests home-spun, straight talk medicine and indeed each day lives are saved with the help of a miracle drug developed by Doctor Wooden that prevents heart attacks.

However, what goes on behind these sterile walls is anything but trusting and warm, for a psychopath is at work maneuvering to get what he wants, taking the lives that have been saved, even if it means harming and killing some patients along the way.
