    About this ebook

    No one demanded Dr. Michael Sheehan be perfect, of course; they merely required he make no mistakes.

    The sad and depressing Chicago ER has worn down Dr. Michael Sheehan. He wants more. He wants to make a difference. He wants to give back.

    And what goes around comes around.
    Doctors Without Borders has just the spot for Doc Sheehan, and Pablo is glad Doc came. The local historian and storyteller believes in paying it forward, even if no one can understand quite how he pulled it off.

    EVOLVED PUBLISHING PRESENTS a feel-good story to brighten your day. At just over 4,000 words, this feel-good story from the author of the psychological thriller "Forgive Me, Alex" is the perfect distraction from your hectic day, and a reminder that when we do good, we get good.

      From FACT to FICTION

      Jun 20, 2020

      American literary critic Leslie Fiedler once wrote: “Henry Miller wrote novels, but he calls his protagonist Henry, often Henry Miller, and his books are in this gray area between memoir and novel.” If you’re a novelist considering writing a memoir,

      What Others Are Saying about FORGIVE ME, ALEX:

      ~~~

      Lane Diamond has succeeded in bringing to the surface the dark and horrifying mind of a psychotic serial killer while at the same time bringing forth the desperate need for humanity and justice for the victims and their families. I highly recommend this for its powerful and gripping story line. You will be held in a spell that will keep you wanting more and find yourself totally drawn in. ~ The Kindle Book Review

      ~~~

      Okay, I chose to review this one because there were elements of the story that reminded me of Dexter. I'm a fan of both the show and the book and wanted to see if this story could possibly hold up next to Jeff Lindsey's tale of a serial killer who kills other serial killers. It does! And then some.... ~ Mary Ann Loesch

      "Forgive Me, Alex is a fascinating psychological read! It kind of feels like the story behind an episode of Criminal Minds." ~ Leahgonz

      "Methodically thorough, this book came together like a well-crafted puzzle. The word choice, though coarse, is meaningful and eloquent. The switching points of view and timelines were plot-driven, not pointless. The narrator made this story come alive. I loved all
