The Song of the Mockingbird

Mark McDonald, the author, grew up from early childhood hearing the telling and retelling of the factual events he now relates to his readers in his novel The Song of the Mockingbird. He has heard many of these stories while staying in the house built by his great-grandfather where the people who make his story come to life actually lived.

Come; explore the worlds of Jeb Carter and Elizabeth Archer, whose love seems destined to bring to fruition of all their dreams and desires. Endure with Jeb and Elizabeth, the heartbreak of seemingly hopeless love. Experience the heartaches of disease, dependency, and death, shared by Jeb and the Archer family. Thrill to the exhilaration of teetering on the brink of the impending tragedy they face, and of a stalwart resolve to overcome any obstacle. What will the outcome be? Must their love be destroyed, their hopes forever vanquished?
