A Prequel to Into The Shadows by Clare Folan. You know my daughter’s story; now it’s time to tell mine. I’m Ariana Dale, and I’ve been hiding a secret. When I was sixteen, a student at the Paranormal Sky Academy (PSA), I glimpsed the year 3000—a vision that revealed what my daughter would one day face. I’ve spent years preparing for this moment, because of her—a new paranormal species will emerge, one that could change everything. But dark forces are determined to stop it, to rewrite her fate before it begins. In my quest to protect her, I uncover a terrifying connection. A danger is coming, and the future may depend on the truth I’m about to uncover. “We are known as Paranormals to the world, but we were once called The Gifted.” Set in the year 2065, uncover the truth behind Into The Shadows. Destiny awaits. The Skies Came Before The Shadows.

Imagine living in a world where there are more than humans – a society where Paranormals co-exist with us, and a corrupt government kidnaps them so they can study their immortality and powers. Where would you go? Imagine thinking you were human all your life, then find out you’re not, and if the government discovers you, you’ll become the most desired paranormal test subject to ever live. Where would you hide? In 2050, our world was divided into four species - Humans, Paranormals, Descendants, and Mutated Humans. Ava James thinks she's human, but finds out she's not… and in more danger than she ever could have realized. Her days just got a whole lot busier. "You need to learn to protect yourself. You need to know the dangers of what you are, but also the strength of who you are." All set in year 3000. Once Unified Now In Shadows.
