In the sequel to the first book in the Shadow series - Shadow: Darkness - Violet Anderson faces even more challenges as trouble arises in her mother's family. With Fear lashing out at the Shadow with ferocious strength and force, Violet can barely stand the pressure and fight back. Especially after the death of someone very close to her. To make it worse, Knowledge has somehow disappeared. With no voice inside her head to offer wisdom or advice, and no telepowers at all, Violet is convinced she is useless. When trouble after trouble happens she has to choose - can Violet also be the Shadow? Even without Knowledge? Or does she have to choose between being Violet or the Shadow?
