Do you like thrilling tales of romance, intrigue and moral dilemmas? Does the intricacy of Chinese culture fascinate you? Welcome to A Pale Skin where traditional Chinese values take on modern beliefs, often with catastrophic consequences. A greedy businessman who will do anything and harm anyone for success; an ill-fated musician whose destiny is dictated by the man she will marry; a young girl sold into a violent marriage by her own father and a thief so desperate in the pursuit of wealth that he accidently causes the death of a young girl. Every character pays a price for greed, lust, anger and jealousy; at their own hand or somebody else's. With stories about love, death, violence and lies, A Pale Skin will question your beliefs about honesty, love, death and life itself.
