The Anesthesiologist: Blackout Born
A dose buried a moment, and only a dose can bring it back.
This is the first book in the series, and it introduces SK, also known as Blackout, who is fresh out of anesthesia residency. He knows how to put people under, and he knows how to bring them back.
But for years, there’s one memory he hasn’t been able to recover: the night he lost the woman he loved and the child he would never know.
Unable to remember the details of the break-up, he turns to the one thing he understands better than anyone: anesthesia. His experimental “narcotic theory” promises to map drug-induced visions, allowing him to reconstruct the truth buried inside his own blackout.
But SK’s breakthrough has drawn the attention of the SINdustry, a criminal syndicate with money, reach, and a ruthless interest in controlling minds. They introduce him to his new partner-in-crime, Ada, an AI supercomputer capable of scaling SK’s dangerous discovery and enabling him to push boundaries he never thought possible.
With the help of this cutting-edge technology, he begins dosing himself into the past, chasing reality through dream, hallucination, and fantasy.
As SK pushes his body, his mind, and his sobriety past the breaking point, every recovered fragment brings him closer to the truth—and deeper into a world where memory can be weaponized, addiction can be exploited, and redemption may cost more than he has left to give.
Atmospheric, brutal, and emotionally charged, The Anesthesiologist: Blackout Born is a medical noir erotic thriller about the trauma of forgetting, the cost of remembering, and the terrifying question of whether the past can ever be safely reopened.
Character Focus
The main character, SK, also known as Blackout, is a professional anesthesiologist.
He plays a morally gray protagonist throughout the series—someone who makes risky life choices yet often ends up helping others.
A chronic history of substance abuse leads him to discover an extreme concept which he names the narcotic theory. It becomes the source of his obsession and shapes his path forward, exposing him to both the promise and the consequences of his ongoing drug experimentations.
Romantic relationships play a central role in his life; from each partner, he draws energy that fuels his drive to repair what feels broken in himself and in others.
Recurring Themes
Be on the lookout for upcoming releases over the next few months. SK encounters several recurring themes throughout the books, each reflecting areas of lasting interest and inquiry.
Envisioning the Future of Anesthesia and Dark Medicine
Anesthesia is one of the series’ central fascinations. The act of putting people to sleep has always felt mysterious to SK, almost like sending them into an unknown dimension.
Over the years, he has witnessed patients describe experiences under anesthesia that range from dark and disturbing to bright and enlightening. SK comes across both the conceptual future of the field and the ways it might be misused by transgressors.
Illicit Drugs, Technology, and the Underworld
Mood-altering substances have always been part of society and likely always will be. Whether used to enhance performance, reduce stress, elevate mood, or provide escape, they reflect an ongoing human desire to alter experience.
That desire drives the creation of new chemicals and novel methods of distribution. When technological processing power enters that world, it introduces both extraordinary possibilities and serious risks.
Because an anesthesiologist is trained in dosing, medication delivery, and diagnostics, introducing such a character within the drug underworld opens the door to countless storylines.
Trauma, Power, and Healing
The horrors of human behavior often create trauma, forcing people to search for ways to cope, heal, and survive. Greed, jealousy, pride, ignorance, and fear continue to drive oppression and violence.
Since the beginning of history, power has rarely been distributed equally; it has remained concentrated in the hands of a few. Those few often dictate whether others experience genuine intellectual freedom or remain trapped by debt, illness, and the distractions of modern media.
SK's life clashes with this enduring quest for control, the trauma it creates, and the difficult process of healing from it.
