About this audiobook
Moses Van Buren is the boy nobody at Marcus Crowe Academy looks at twice. Seventeen. Confirmed shadowkin. Ranked dead last — no transformation, no ability, just a name that echoes the world’s most famous hero and a life spent invisible.
Then a shadow finds him. Not his own — something older, furious, the unfinished will of a murdered woman searching for someone strong enough to carry her vengeance. The night it chooses him, everything he thought he knew about himself stops being true.
With a world-famous telepath who treats ethics as optional, and the academy’s untouchable golden prodigy who never expected to be his friend, Moses is pulled into a war bigger and older than any of them are ready for. A hate group thought destroyed is rising again. Someone in power is arming it. And something behind it all isn’t human.
Moses just wanted to matter. Now he has to decide what kind of person he becomes once he finally does.
