In this explosive detective thriller, a 1930s vigilante finds himself
in the late twenty-first-century where he teams up with a mysterious
teenager, whose looming secrets may impact both of their futures.
Only two people know that 1930s society man Lamont Cranston has a secret
identity as the Shadow, a crusader for justice. One is his greatest
love, Margo Lane, and the other is fiercest enemy, Shiwan Khan. When
Khan ambushes the couple, they must risk everything for the slimmest
chance of survival . . . in the future.
A century and a half later, Lamont awakens in a world both unknown and
disturbingly familiar. The first person he meets is Maddy Gomes, a
teenager with her own mysterious secrets, including a knowledge of the
legend of the Shadow.
Most disturbing, Khan's power continues to be felt over the city and its
people. No one in this new world understands the dangers of stopping him
better than Lamont Cranston. And only the Shadow knows that he's the one
person who might succeed before more innocent lives are lost.
