The Parallel Lives of John Allen
John Allen's life is a mess. He is a divorced alcoholic and is unhappy about his existence. But then, he meets Sean O'Hern, from County Cork, Ireland, who offers John a new start in a parallel life. Naturally, John is skeptical but agrees to try by redoing a decision that led him to his current life, which will bring him to a new life journey.
Sean opens the door for John to experience up to five different parallel lives. If things don't work out in one life, John can choose another based on changing an earlier decision. While he parallel travels, his original life continues.
John finds that his parallel lives can cross, where people he meets from one life can wind up in another. He also discovers that he's being manipulated along his life's paths and engages in a cat-and-mouse game with his tormentor.

Clever, creative, captivating. An opportunity to reflect in one’s own life and what it would be like to experience parallel lives. Can’t wait for more from this gifted writer. Bravo, Cliff Allman!
