The President's Shadow — James Patterson; Richard DiLallo

The Shadow is back and saving the president -- and the world -- from inconceivable disaster.

Lamont Cranston, aka The Shadow, has never been prouder of Maddy Cranston, who's graduating college and starting an internship at a New York City public defender's office. 

But she still has a lot to learn. Especially about her undeveloped powers of shape-shifting and mind-control inherited from her mentor, Lamont. 
The two crime-fighters might look like father and daughter (or rather, great-great- granddaughter), though it's their mental powers that unites them. 

            With Lamont investigating multiple deadly assaults on the world -- the geological super-weapon “Terrageddon” and the deadly virus “Newbola” -- Maddy goes undercover to investigate a trafficking ring ensnaring people her age, until an errant attack exposes her vulnerability … and unlocks her confidence. 

Only if Maddy and the Shadow can combine forces can they erase the threat of The President's Shadow.
