Shadows in the Light

In his freshman year of high school, Parker Dawson stumbled into a world he was never meant to see—a world filled with monsters, ancient curses, and shadows that feed on fear. Now, years later, Parker is at Benedict College in South Carolina, hoping to escape his dark past and live a normal life. But the darkness has other plans.

Unexplainable events unfold across campus: shadows flicker where they shouldn’t, and strange, chilling whispers follow Parker wherever he goes. Despite his best efforts to hide his hunter’s instincts, Parker realizes he’s not the only one haunted by his past. With the help of his two friends, Jamal and Kiana, he uncovers a secret that has plagued the college for over a century—a powerful, cursed artifact known as the Veilstone, a gateway for the shadows.

As Parker and his friends face escalating attacks from creatures lurking in the darkness, they must race against time to destroy the Veilstone before it consumes them—and the entire campus. But the deeper they go, the more Parker realizes this is only the beginning. Shadows of even greater power are stirring, and the darkness that first marked him years ago may hold secrets he’s only beginning to understand.
