Jeronimus Quint 博士有一個不尋常的商業(yè)模式,希波克拉底會皺眉頭:他通過傷害那些生活依賴他的人來創(chuàng)造自己的病人。 他最近的受害者是喬納斯·克勞、承辦者和他的英國同伴羅斯。 沒有最好的醫(yī)療照顧——即 Quint 的每個人都可能因壞疽而失去肢體,甚至死亡。 他綁架了羅斯,并在喬納斯和他的同伙林追捕他和他的俘虜時隱瞞了他的施虐手術(shù)技能。 前面有擺渡工和伐木工,后面有憤怒的執(zhí)法人員,還有一條腿從內(nèi)部殺死了他,承辦者希望能活得足夠長,讓杰羅尼穆斯·昆特成為他的下一個顧客。
Dr. Jeronimus Quint has an unusual business model that Hippocrates would frown upon: he creates his own patients by injuring people whose lives then depend on him. His latest victims are Jonas Crow, Undertaker, and Rose, his English companion. Without the best medical attention—i.e. Quint's—each might lose a limb, or even die, from gangrene. He's kidnapped Rose and is withholding his sado-surgical skills while Jonas and his cohort Lin pursue him and his captive. With ferrymen and lumberjacks in front, angry lawmen behind, and a leg killing him from within, the Undertaker hopes to survive long enough to make Jeronimus Quint his next customer.
