Description

A woman with a deadly past. A child, begging for help. Can she catch a monster without becoming one, herself?

Terrified of unleashing her dark power on others, Annie has been a fugitive for five years. Hiding in the strange haven called Nowhere, a world between worlds, she struggles to stop her terrible magic from controlling her. But Annie's quiet sanctuary shatters when someone else stumbles through the portal into her world.

Covered in blood, her clothes in shreds, the newcomer claims she saw a monster kill a man and begs for Annie's help before the beast slaughters again.

When Annie is pulled through the portal to hunt the rampaging creature, she expects blood and mayhem. What she doesn't expect is her growing feelings for the town's dark-eyed priest. But Annie has monsters of her own to battle and the truths she uncovers in this new world may bring far more brutal creatures out of the shadows.

Can Annie hold off her own darkness long enough to uncover the truth about the monster, or will she become something far worse than the terror she's fighting?

The Shadow and the Scream is the deliciously dark first book in the portal fantasy series, The Nowhere Chronicles. If you love reluctant heroines, monstrous shifters and a deadly mystery, you'll love Rebecca L. Fearnley's dark fantasy story.
