Shadow of Night

Author: Deborah Harkness

Deborah Harkness’s “Shadow of Night” plunges readers into a captivating world of time travel and supernatural intrigue. As historian Diana Bishop and vampire Matthew Clairmont journey to Elizabethan London, they’re thrust into a dangerous web of politics, magic, and secrets. Harkness’s meticulous research brings the past to life, while her deft storytelling keeps you on the edge of your seat. I found myself completely lost in this rich, atmospheric tale, unable to put it down until the very last page.

History is all about 'what ifs' and 'might-have-beens.'
