Shadow Girl
Shadow Trilogy Book 1
Dahlia Amy
When the aliens finally invade our crumbling society, do you save the world or side with the villain?
Skycrest, 2039 - a futuristic city where the gap between rich and poor is larger than ever, technology leaves no room for humanity, and corrupt governments fight for power. The perfect playground for an alien invasion.
Gwen and Elena, two best friends with contrasting personalities and moral codes, find themselves on opposite sides of a conflict bigger than humanity when a trip to the most heavily fortified area of the city leaves Gwen’s dreams haunted by a mysterious shadow woman. After making a decision she can’t come back from, she discovers her nightly visitor is actually a vengeful alien spirit - her cruelty as immense as her power - with disastrous plans for Earth. Elena tries to save Gwen - and the world - from her growing obsession, but how do you save what feels at home in the darkness?
Shadow Girl is a dark dystopian sci-fi fantasy novel with complex, morally gray complex FMCs, sapphic yearning, and shadowy aliens, set in a futuristic world that may be closer than we’d like to admit.
