The Pale

I'd learned pretty quickly that the only person you can depend on is yourself. But when I awake alone, in a city enveloped in mist, I find myself frantically searching for anyone who can help. Desperate to escape my new reality, I'm forced to overcome challenges I never could have imagined. As I struggle to stop a murderer from a place beyond the physical world, I slowly learn the value of letting the right people into your life. With the help of a selfless twelve-year-old and an amateur sleuth I can't seem to tear myself away from, I only hope that I can do what needs to be done before it's too late. The Pale: Diary of the dead is J.McDonald's debut novel. Leveraging a unique writing style developed over shorter works and Master's thesis piece, this author's works explore the concept of what matters most about a person while sending readers on a thrilling ride.
