Shadows

by Sayword B. Eller

All Victoria Gray wants is a little normalcy in her life. With her relocation to North Carolina, and her blossoming relationship with the very handsome Marc Peterson, she hopes to move on from the pain of her past, but that isn't likely to happen with a sullen dead girl hanging around. Reluctantly Victoria begins to awaken to the fact that she has developed the ability to communicate with the dead, and it doesn't take her long to figure out that the girl haunting her is running out of time. As the pieces begin to fall into place Victoria uncovers long-buried secrets that someone wants kept no matter the cost. Will she be able to free the specter from her prison of purgatory? Or will the shadows make certain that she suffers the same fate?

Reviews

[Lynette Hall Hampton · Rating 4 out of 5]

The only thing that kept me from giving this book 5 stars was the fact that I got so irritated at Victoria in the first third of the book. I wanted to smack her and tell her to grow up. She was such a wimp going back to her ex-husband every time she heard form him. After she finally saw what an idiot she was, I began to like the woman and was pulling for her all the way. If you like ghost stories this is the book for you.
