About The Shieling
Part mystery, part suspense, part romance, The Shieling is Michael J. Collins’ fourth book, following in the footsteps of Hot Lights, Cold Steel, a memoir of Mike’s surgical residency at the Mayo Clinic, Blue Collar, Blue Scrubs, a retelling of Mike’s days as a construction worker trying to get into medical school, and All Bleeding Stops, a novel about a Vietnam War combat surgeon whose care and commitment eventually overwhelm him.
“I had fun writing this book,” Mike says. “More than anything else, The Shieling is a story—a story about two people struggling to put their lives back together after life has treated them unfairly. It is a story I enjoyed telling, and a story I hope my readers will enjoy reading.”
