What people are saying:
Woman in Shadow by Carrie Stuart Parks is a phenomenal thriller with deeply rendered, flawed characters. Ms Parks' expertise truly comes through in how she can craft a story about criminal activity. Here, she shines with her storytelling as strongly, if not better, than her previous works. I loved the character of Darby, with her very real struggles and emotions. The ultimate culprit of the crimes in this book-- that really surprised me and I am usually quite good at figuring out mysteries in books. I loved this book and hope the author continues to write novels with this fascinating character in the beautiful environment of the camp. I loved everything about it and think that further novels set her would be amazing.
