About this listen
Living on the streets of Seattle, Jim, a homeless man, finds solace in the companionship of his loyal dog amidst the harsh realities of life.
But when he stumbles upon a body in the park bearing hauntingly familiar wounds, Jim's simple world is turned upside down.
As long-buried memories resurface and the fog of his past begins to clear, Jim resumes a decades-long hunt for a ruthless serial killer. The time for justice is drawing near. And so is revenge.
The Pale Cold Light is a standalone psychological thriller.
WHAT READERS ARE SAYING:
★★★★★ “This book is beautifully written and will bring tears to your eyes in many places. The mystery is intriguing, and the story is both tragic and hopeful with a beautifully perfect ending. I can not recommend it enough.” —Amazon review
★★★★★ “The Pale Cold Light really highlights the talents of J.R. Rain. To have a hero who is a long time street person struggling with his sanity is so unique. When that hero holds a reader’s undivided interest from the first page to the last, it means that the writer has excelled at characterization as well as plot. It is not unusual to equate homelessness with mental illness but the struggles and determination of James Matheson are enough for any feeling person to reconsider their reactions to such persons. The plot is well developed from the start to the conclusion with no loose threads. It is a memorable book and well worth reading.” —Amazon review
★★★★★ “One of the best novels I’ve ever read! I am a huge fan of Mr. Rain. I have enjoyed the Samantha Moon series especially. The Pale Cold Light has raised the bar to new heights. This story brought me to a new experience of loving a character and being drawn into emotions of empathy, sympathy, and understanding of someone who has been brought into a life way outside my comfort level. Wow just Wow!! You will never look at a homeless person in the same way. Beautiful story.” —Amazon review
★★★★★ “Great story. I was drawn in from the very first page and the book continued to hold my attention until the last page. My heart broke for the confused homeless man in the first pages. As Jim Matheson regains his memory, faces his pain and loss all over again, and teeters between his past life and his confusion, the story continued to pull my heart strings. The book was well written and I thoroughly enjoyed reading it.” —Amazon review
★★★★★ “Beautiful and heartbreaking. This has to be the most intense book I have read in a very long time and believe me when I say that I read A LOT! Entering the mind of someone who is so tormented and yet determined is not an easy thing. This has made me see the homeless and unstable in a completely different way. I adore his Job-like characteristics. The foray into insanity is extremely hard to read but my goodness what a great story. Like I said beautiful and yet heartbreaking. A must read.” —Amazon review

It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Nathan Tyler is an unassuming professor at a middling American university with a rather obscure specialty in mathematics—in short, a nobody from nowhere. So why is the White House calling? Summoned to Washington, DC, for a top-secret briefing, Nathan discovers that he’s the key to a massive foreign intelligence breakthrough. Reading between the lines of a cryptic series of equations, he could open a door straight into the heart of the Kremlin and change the global balance of power forever.

Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Two little girls stand with their heads bowed in my living room. I’m told they’re my granddaughters. Daisy is nine, and Alice seven. Daisy is the spitting image of her mother. This is the first time I’ve met them since my daughter and I fell out after she married that waste of space, Vince. They’ve come to live with me because their mother — my daughter — was murdered. In her own home while they slept close by. I think Vince killed her. But the police can’t prove it. I’ve always known he was no good. He treated my daughter like dirt. I said he’d cheat on her — but she wouldn’t listen.

No crimes of passion. The perfect murder is always business, never pleasure.”

Unique and captivating story!
Absolutely loved this book! Wished it was 10 hours long, enjoyed the unique story line, very interesting.
At first I wasn’t sure if I would like the virtual narration, but it fit the book. I definitely will read another book by this writer. EXCELLENT!

Love the Story-Hate the AI
The plot of this story was great! I thought it was wonderfully written. I did not enjoy the AI narration. I’m guessing the use of AI was a result of the actor’s/writer’s strike. Not impressive. At any rate, the story was quite enjoyable, and should be redone by someone with real emotions. I still suggest listening to it, after all it’s free and less than 5 hours.

Read instead of listening
Good enough story and writing. Dreadful narration. Really dreadful lack of finding the story and characters in the vocalizing.

Virtual voice was annoying.
Could have done without chapters 1-7. Almost gave up on the book and probably should have. I don't recommend this book.
