IN THE SHADOWS HC (C: 1-0-0) (W) Kiersten White, Jim Di Bartolo (A/CA) Jim Di Bartolo Told in an astonishing mix of art and words, In the Shadows collides past against future, love against evil, and hope against fear. Cora and Minnie are sisters living in a small, stifling town where strange and mysterious things occur. Their mother runs the local boarding house. Their father is gone. The woman up the hill may or may not be a witch. Thomas and Charles are brothers who've been exiled to the boarding house so Thomas can tame his ways and Charles can fight an illness that is killing him with increasing speed. Their family history is one of sorrow and guilt. They think they can escape from it - but they can't. Arthur is also new to the boarding house. His fate is tied to that of Cora, Minnie, Thomas, and Charles. He knows what darkness circles them, but can't say why, and doesn't even know if they can be saved. AUG141646 9780545561440
