A Shadow Dark and Daring

With war between Unremarkables and the magi looming on the horizon, time is running out for the Everyfolk to train their forces to protect the innocent and stop the bloodshed. Before the fighting breaks out, Cadence must learn to master her promised multi-colored abilities. But with every clear diamond tear shed, Cadence wonders if her power - and herself - is worth anything at all. Having now reunited with two members of her old gang, the Prowlers, Raven struggles to balance her new relationship with her love of thievery. Can Raven discover what she truly wants out of life? Allegra has been cleared for combat, but her neuromuscular disorder still produces debilitating flare-ups. Training to wield a weapon might prove too much for Allegra, but she refuses to give up without a fight. Despite love and loss complicating every turn, Cadence, Raven, and Allegra must prove they have what it takes to step out of the shadows and defend their new home.
