Rape. Rage. Violent death. Loss. They have turned Chloe Sullivan’s life in to a living nightmare in In The Shadows. Life after a very public tragedy has sent Chloe spiraling down a dark rabbit hole of addiction in attempts to escape the monster that hides within her, desperate to be free from the unwelcome spotlight. And her family will do anything to save her. The horrors of eighteen year old Chloe’s past have already seen her trapped in a never ending torrent of sex, alcohol, and fear. The Sullivan family, desperate and running out of options, moves to England to care for their ailing great grandmother, dragging an unwilling Chloe along with them. While their hope that a change of scenery and new connections may serve to offer Chloe some reprieve, she instead quickly finds herself ensnared in a startling new world of wealth, power, and pressure. And it doesn’t take long for Chloe to find that she’s not the only one with secrets. In order to survive the war against herself, she must first accept that no matter how far she runs, her demons will follow. That is—if she even wants to survive at all.
