Every Dark Shadow - Hardcover

by Sarah Zimm (Author)

Step into a dark, dangerous, intoxicating realm with cinematic world-building. Explore slow-burn romances, epic magic systems, fated bonds, hidden identities, stunning plot twists, and banter that will make you blush.

A fugitive hunted for her bloodline is thrust into a perilous game of hide-and-seek as she seeks the truth of who she is, while three rival protectors aim to keep what's locked inside her safe from a twisted king.

A smuggler indentured to dangerous bosses tells himself the woman is a job, training her in hopes of stoking a rebellion that will set their kingdom free.

A scholar with his own tragic past wants to give her a real life, but she doesn't remember him, and-worse-he sees the heat between her and someone else.

A soldier who loathes his magic is set on hiding the truth of her identity, fearing the destruction of everything they know if she remembers what they are to one another.

Meanwhile, a mysterious new villain with dark secrets and darker beasts is enacting his revenge in the name of taking down the monarchy-whatever it may cost.

For decades, a tyrant half-breed king has held the Magus throne and kept the magic-born in chains.

That's all about to change.

In the moral world, Ophelia Dannan is withering on a farm in old New York. She spends nights counting stars, avoiding the vigilance of family, and plotting to seize her freedom. But as memories of strange places and times surface, she suspects her life is nothing like it seems.

For four years, three protectors have shepherded Ophelia between mortal and magic realms, twisting her memories to keep a dangerous secret locked inside her safe. But when she slips through their fingers, crumbling their scheme, it propels them straight into danger.

As the king's armies give chase and a dark force rises to further threaten Magus, the four are forced to seek the truth of Ophelia's identity. Loyalties, love, and sacred friendships unraveling, they must face the fears and feelings that fester-and a powerful new enemy no one's certain how to conquer-or they and their kingdom may fall into darkness.

Enjoyed by readers who loved A Court of Thorns and Roses, Shadow and Bone, Mistborn, Fourth Wing, and Throne of Glass. If you love a strong, clever heroine like Nynaeve meets Jo March, fell to your knees for the Darkling, and need an anti-hero that brings Kylo Ren energy, the Whispers of Dust & Darkness series will have you obsessed!

Please note while book one is new adult, the series as a whole is intended for mature adults. A guide is available at the front of each book.
