Description
Twenty-three-year-old Evie Day never dreamt she’d be back in Woodsville Arkansas, a small town in the middle of nowhere, after having left five years earlier, but the death of her grandfather called for her return. After discovering a photo from 1933 of a mysterious woman standing next to a tiny wooden box, a strange vial of blood wrapped up in a handkerchief in the pocket of her grandfather’s overalls, and a key hidden in his desk drawer that belongs to a secret safety deposit box, Evie is unwittingly thrown into a world of evil where those closest to her are the ones to be the most feared and danger lurks around every corner.
A Note From the Publisher
She is currently writing the first of four sequels to Hidden in The Shadows and looks forward to spending more time with Evie. She is also working on another novel, Memoirs from a Killer.

"Hidden in the Shadows by A. D. Vancise is a tale of conspiracy and power. Told through interweaving storylines that slowly connect, the novel explores themes such as greed, lust, and belief in the supernatural.

"Libraries seeking thrillers that are firmly based on community and individual actions, and which hold elements of surprise through twists and turns readers won't see coming, will find Hidden in the Shadows does a fine job of connecting the dots between a mysterious photo that actually holds all the answers to a young woman who navigates unfamiliar and too-family territory, past and present." -Midwest Book Review
"Vancise’s words managed to keep me intrigued as well as entertained as I raced through this book." -Red Headed Book Lover

Featured Reviews
Louise G, Reviewer
I understand the author is primarily a visual artist and this makes absolute sense as her descriptions of often dark scenarios are truly evocative. This is done very cleverly and may be too much for some readers but I think it works well and serves to embed the reader in the context and events of the book,
