Woman in Shadow

Written by Carrie Stuart Parks

Narrated by Talon David

Award-winning author Carrie Stuart Parks combines her expertise as a forensic artist with her talent for crafting a gripping story in this page-turning web of light and shadow.

A woman off the grid.

Darby Graham thinks she’s on a much-needed vacation in remote Idaho to relax. But before she even arrives at the ranch, an earthquake strikes. Then a barn on the edge of town is engulfed in flames and strange problems at the ranch begin to escalate, and Darby finds herself immersed in a chilling mystery.

A town on fire.

More fires erupt around town, and a serial arsonist sends taunting letters to the press after each. As a forensic linguist, this is Darby’s area of expertise . . . but the scars her work has caused her are also the reason she’s trying to escape her life.

A growing darkness.

As the shadows continue moving in, pieces of the town around her come into sharper focus. To make it out alive, Darby must decide if she can trust the one man who sees her clearly.

Reviews for Woman in Shadow

[Mary Earnhart Brewer · Rating: 1 out of 5 stars]

I like this author a lot, but this book was really slow and hard to follow.

[Jodie Moore · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

I always enjoy the forensic information I glean from Carrie's books! I didn't live this one as much as some of her others because I didn't care for the switching view points. From first person to third person between two different characters was a little distracting for me.
