Shadow's Fate

Death is only the beginning.

Shadow Island is a wreck. Buildings lay in rubble, construction crews swarm the island, and the aftermath of the Yacht Club Massacre has left many dead. But at least Sheriff Rebecca West put an end to the violence against young girls by dismantling the elite men’s club.

Or so she thought.

When a teenage girl is found stabbed and half-buried in a makeshift grave at the local cemetery, her arms carved with occult symbols, whispers of dark rituals and black magic spread through the community. The victim’s friends insist she died from the legendary witch’s curse. But when a second girl is violently murdered, Rebecca fears a far more sinister—and human—threat.

Unfortunately, the witch’s curse isn’t the only myth refusing to stay buried. And the teen’s corpse only scratches the surface of the horrors lurking beneath the cemetery.

Shadow’s Fate, the bewitching sixteenth installment of the Shadow Island Series by Mary Stone and Lori Rhodes, is a testament that there are, indeed, fates worse than death.
