Obituary writer Nadine Barbault doesn’t mind being called “Lady Death”. It suits the ice queen persona she’s cultivated to survive the fast-paced Toronto Herald. So when Nadine learns that famous (and reclusive) author Dot Voline has died, she doesn’t hesitate to run the obituary…only to discover that Dot is very much alive. Nadine’s screw-up has brought Wesley Chen of the rival Spear no end of joy—she’s been a thorn in his extremely ambitious side for years. But the renewed interest in Dot also surfaced chatter about a mysterious past scandal.

Story
After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

Great return to form and conclusion to a wonderful series!
In the Shadow of Victory is the fourth and final book in the ‘In the Shadow of” series that is a World War II sapphic spy drama following the stories of Kathryn and Jenny as the end of the war approaches and the dramatic events of the first few books comes to a climax!
I made no secret of my SEVERE disappointment with the third book - the first two were 5-stars for me, the third was 2-star (pretty sure I said I was being generous in the review!). I didn’t like what happened to the characters, all of the actions felt forced, things got too contrived, and overall the pacing was terrible and so much more editing was needed to fix some glaring issues.
In the Shadow of Victory is like three books wrapped into one - dealing with the aftermath of the previous book, actually advancing the plot, and wrapping up the love story of Kat & Jenny.
The first part reminds me a bit of ‘Rise of Skywalker’ - retconning stuff from book three and info-dumping the new direction for the final book. It felt like the author absorbed the criticism from the previous book as she reframes nearly everything that happened while still having to deal with the actions. It worked pretty well in my opinion. But the info dumps were exhausting because they all basically existed to address shortcomings from the previous book and made the narrative and dialogue feel forced and unnatural.
As for the core story - it was fine. It wrapped up what needed to be wrapped, and did so in a way that positioned all involved (well, most) for the happy ending they all deserve. In a weird twist we get new secondary characters introduced halfway into book four who are critical to other characters endings.
My other main issue was the ‘fluid POV’ - whereas the earlier books were told from a dual Kat & Jenny POV, there were no fewer than FIVE POVs in the final book that I counted, and sometimes it would change more than once on a single page which caused whiplash!
But most importantly, we FINALLY got the happy ending for Kat & Jenny. Told in three parts starting towards the end of the war through the ensuing years, this tightly focused section shows there is much left for each and both to do to heal - but that it will be alright in the end. The happy ending extended to another couple of secondary characters which made the mid-book side-trip pay off.
Overall I was incredibly satisfied with the series despite my stated frustrations - I felt like there were three excellent books in a four book series - the final book was occasionally awkward and spent too much time in the middle telling us how to feel rather than showing us WHY we feel that way, but once it got on track I was reminded of why I completely adored the first two books.
Highly recommend the whole series - you’ll get frustrated occasionally, but mostly you’ll laugh, cry, and fall in love with Kat & Jenny. Thanks to JE Leak for the wild ride these past few years!

Thanks for another great installment to this series. I only wish it would get picked up by Hulu, so we could watch Jennie and Kathryn's continued adventures! Never mind, then we would lose Abby Craden's sparkling narrative...

Heartbroken and whole, again and again!
I was heartbroken and whole again and again throughout the Shadows series and oh my God, I loved it! The setting, the plot, the characters, the beautiful love, everything transported me in those times, I felt part of the story. This last book of the 4 was what it should have been: the raw emotion of going back to oneself, to make peace with a tumultuous past, with the reality of a war that took a lot from them, but one thing: their love. It’s hard to take sides, but I think I am a fan of Jenny, of her journey from an innocent, impulsive and oh so sweet girl to an accomplished, wise, patient and deep woman, that went through an emotional roller coaster, but never ever has she stopped loving Kat. And Kat, she’s been so close to my heart and even though sometimes her actions broke my heart, I knew she will conquer her demons in the end.
I’d like to read a story, if not a book about Smithy and Vivienne’s story and a compilation of Jenny’s and Kat’s letters to each other while they were apart.
I love the playlist J.E Leak created and that you can find on her website, it complements the books and make the experience even better.
It wouldn’t be fair not to say that for me, Abby Craden’s narration was half of the experience! There is no better voice that could have taken me back then!
