Title - Maria's Shadow
Author - DL Cary
The story opens with Senator Edward Grayson receiving a cryptic text: "Found your lost stray." Grayson has long followed his father Charles's advice: “Influence is a coin, Edward. Invest it wisely, and it multiplies.”
Maria was lured with false promises of support for her Hollywood dreams—dreams that quickly turned into a nightmare when she was abducted and imprisoned in a secluded mansion. During her stay in the mansion, Maria was pregnant. She named her to-be-born baby Mateo. When an opportunity to escape arose, Maria fled with evidence that posed a serious threat to Senator Grayson.
But Grayson’s men eventually found her. She was killed—but not before she cleverly entrusted Mateo to Detective John Jefferson. Left with no other choice, Jefferson takes the boy home. His personal life, however, is already strained—his wife has recently suffered a third miscarriage. How will she respond to Mateo’s sudden arrival?
Cary weaves an engrossing tale. I couldn’t put the book down once I started. Maria’s character stood out—her strength and determination were deeply moving. Will the corrupt men finally face consequences? I’m definitely looking forward to the next book in the series.
Rating - 5/5
Thanks for reading.
