Ever wish you could go back and make it right?
Henry Chase is every woman's worst nightmare. Nicknamed "The Assassin" by his Wall Street brethren, he'll lie, seduce, betray, manipulate-- whatever it takes-- to stay on top, in the boardroom and the bedroom. There's not a speck of humanity left in his steely soul until one night when his conscience catches him by surprise and demands a reckoning.
With the help of a mysterious young woman, Henry confesses to a list-- a list of the lives he has ruined in the pursuit of power and riches.
Prodded by his newly found alter ego, Henry embarks on a road trip of redemption-- he sets out to make it right for those in his past, and maybe for himself in the future.
For anyone who ever wondered just what makes a man tick, "Henry's List of Wrongs" exposes the inner workings of the male mind, its carefully hidden motivations, desires, and fears.
A story with humor, romance, and sting, it might even make you confront your own list of regrets.

Review:

"From time to time, you stumble across something that looks like everything else at first glance, but upon further inspection is very revealing and completely engulfing-- if you can put this book down after the opening scene, then you're a lost cause. "Henry's List of Wrongs" will leave you thinking about a great many things, and there are parts of this book that are truly inspired. I was left breathless throughout most of it, and I'm sure you will be too. John Scott Shepherd is a very smart, talented, and savvy storyteller."--"Ain't It Cool News"
"A hip, brash, stylish page-turner with a surprising amount of heart. A combination of big-city cool and midwestern morality," Henry's List of Wrongs" is a hard-edged, soft-centered look at how easily a man can go wrong in life-- and how hard it can be to undo the past. John Scott Shepherd is a talented new voice in fiction."--Kristin Hannah, bestselling author of "Summer Island"
