Alex

By: Adam J. Nicolai

Narrated by: Marc Vietor

Alex was Ian's five-year-old son: brilliant, earnest, and compassionate. He is dead now, but Ian can't let him go. When his wife urges him to move on, he drives her away. His performance at work collapses; his friends leave him. Six months later, alone in an empty house, Ian starts to see his son again.

Every vision is a repeat of something the boy said or did in life: aching memories replaying themselves for Ian's eyes alone. Are these images of Alex real? Has Ian's son found a way back, to forgive or condemn his father? Or has Ian's sorrow metastasized into psychosis?

With a masterful hand, best-selling Kindle Horror author Adam J. Nicolai paints a picture of grief, madness, and the furious strength of a father's love for his son.

Loved it!

Get this audiobook and enjoy! Starts a little slow but definitely builds with unexpected twists and turns. Going to search for the next title from this author right now.

suspenseful

kept me interested, although ian pissed me off more than a few times. some of the details can be heart breaking to know that these things actually occur to children.

Excellent!!

Great story. Intelligent, concise prose. Well worth the time, money and emotional investment. Highly recommend!

Slow

The story begins slowly and rambles on for several empty chapters. And then when you wake up the book slows down even more, but if you can hang in there until you get to the final 5 or 6 chapters there is some moderately slow action. It took me two months to finish this book.

A mystery that grips you

I assumed I was getting into a regular ghost story, one that may be sad, but I was pleasantly surprised. I found myself working just as hard to pull together the mystery as Ian and just as heartbroken at every mention of his son. If you're looking for a scare, this isn't the book, but a mystery? And good story? One about a caring father and a wonderful little boy? This is it.
