The supernatural crimes are on the rise. And the worst part? I think I know who's behind it. If I'm right, then my past isn't just catching up. It's about to explode. Being half vampire, half angel is a cosmic joke I've never found funny. I'm Maranda Sanderson. My friends call me Randi. I've spent my life straddling the line between two worlds that don't want me. All I want is to work my homicide cases in peace. Too bad fate, and the monsters lurking in Jacksonville's supernatural underground, have other plans. When a string of bizarre murders hits the city, it's clear this isn't your typical whodunit. Something ancient is stirring. Something powerful. And it's tied to a secret I've buried deep. Now I'm racing the clock with my new partner, who has a secret of his own, to uncover a conspiracy that threatens not just the city, but the balance between light and dark itself. The truth could unmake me. Or unleash the part of me I've tried so hard to deny. I was born to walk the edge. Now I have to choose a side. Rise of the Shade is the first in the thrilling urban fantasy series Randi Sanderson, and is perfect for fans of slow-burn paranormal romance, morally gray heroines, and found family with fangs. If you love a badass FMC caught between two worlds, a touch of forbidden magic, and a broody partner with tension you could cut with a stake, then this one's for you.
