Out of the Shadows — Joanne Rendell
A LONG-LOST JOURNAL WILL OPEN THE DOOR TO THE PAST.
FOR ONE WOMAN, ITS SECRETS WILL HOLD THE KEY TO HER FUTURE.
Clara Fitzgerald's recent losses have set her adrift, personally and professionally. Her mother has passed away, and her career seems stalled while her fiancé s scientific research is poised to take off in an exciting new direction. As great as the potential is for his future, Clara can't help -- or ignore -- that her emotional connection to him has slowly been slipping away.
Remembering the stories her mother used to tell her, Clara decides to research her ancestry -- only to uncover an extraordinary link to writer Mary Shelley, who, nearly two centuries before, wrote the novel Frankenstein, which she conceived in a waking dream. It's then that Clara embarks on an illuminating journey. With her reluctant sister in tow, and with the help of Kay, a retired Shelley scholar, Clara begins to search for the author's long-lost journals and letters. As a bond among the three women grows, and as the profound connection between the past and present deepens, Clara comes closer to realizing where her heart truly belongs.
