Description

The Absence of Light is a dark prose novel written by 25-year-old J. Daniel Stone. The story involves two groups of friends--one group a metal band and the other a clan of ghost hunters--who clash after a night of rocking out in a seedy downtown club in NYC. With his fascinating ability for mapping out interesting characters, and a natural ability at setting a gloomy mood, Stone successfully takes his readers through the problems that everyday people face within the boondocks via a small Pennsylvania mining town dusted in anthracite, to the frightening throes of the ever-changing face of New York City with an authenticity that is rarely found in first novels. His words will resonate like a hangover long after you read them.
