The White City
Alena is in Heaven.
It sucks.
On the surface, everything is damn near perfect. Blue skies, cool breezes, smiling people, a spotless city, and a surprising number of bakeries and quilt shops. But Alena doesn't fit in. Nobody else in Paradise is like her, and some things about it just don't add up. Which gets her thinking: Is she in the wrong place? Is this really Heaven, or something else? She is too polite to raise any objections, not at first. But soon enough, courtesy gives way to curiosity. And that is when her real troubles begin.
Meanwhile, Alena's husband, David, is back in Purgatory, still biding his time, waiting for the shady Council of Resident Evaluations to decide if he is best suited for Heaven or Hell. But things in Purgatory are slowly changing, and not for the better. An old enemy is reclaiming power. People are disappearing well before their Evaluation Date, without warning or explanation. The gray maze's infamous bureaucracy lacks either the capability or concern to stop it.
If things keep going this way, David may lose his chance at Heaven. May never get the chance to reunite with Alena, way up there in Paradise. But maybe, if everything works out, she can find a way to come back down to him.
The White City, the second novel from J.D. Serr, is the direct sequel and conclusion to The Gray Maze.
