YA
Perpetual outsider Darcy learns that she hails from a parallel universe where her people, the Shades, survived human attacks but resorted to terrorism. Tasked by her love-interest-turned-arresting-officer with infiltrating Shade society and preventing their next attack, she struggles to choose a side. The antagonistic but electric romance and complex exploration of entrenched prejudice make this novel engrossing, thought-provoking, and ultimately hopeful.
