McDowell by William H. Coles is a book that takes readers on an adventure about the life of Hiram McDowell. The book focuses on the life of Hiram McDowell, a medical doctor and the owner of a medical foundation in Nepal.

He recently got married to Carole and accepted for her two daughters to live with them. They are always quarreling, and there is always conflict in their marriage. They only experience peace when Hiram goes to Nepal to work at the foundation. Hiram is about to contest an election that will change his life forever. Will he succeed?

I like that the author wrote the book in two parts. The first part was about Hiram's decisions. How far he was willing to go to achieve his goals. The friendships and relationships he was willing to let go of to achieve a certain goal. The author tries to show readers how competitive men are. The second part focuses on the consequences of his earlier life choices. The author teaches readers that we all need each other to survive. We should be careful about how we treat other people because it matters. His story is an eye-opener.

I enjoyed reading about the politics in the book. It was fun as I tried to guess the next move of some characters. Their unpredictability made the book realistic. Every character had a role to play and wasn't just used as filler. The book was easy to comprehend. I loved reading about Hiram’s climbing experiences. Hiram's best trait was his love for his children.

I found no errors in the book, which indicates that it was well-edited. I happily give this book a rating of 5 out of 5 stars. I wish to see this book adapted into a movie. I think it would make for a great blockbuster. I recommend this book to lovers of mystery and crime novels.
