Dante knows that one of the best ways to support indie authors is to leave reviews after you read their books! #bookreview #horrorbooks #indieauthors

Early reviews are rolling in! Pre-order today! a.co/d/00CnczgZ

Review for The Shadow Beside Her from Viggy Parr Hampton

Elizabeth Devecchi’s The Shadow Beside Her is by turns haunting, horrifying, and heartbreaking. With characters that feel like real people and a story filled with historical detail, Devecchi crafts a world where nothing and nobody is safe.

Review for The Shadow Beside her (cover with girl walking through a burning village toward a creature) by M.J. Mars: The Shadow Beside her masterfully explores the brutal simplicity and complexity of life amidst the backdrop of war. A beautifully written tale of nine-year-old Maria’s evolving understanding of family ties, friendships, and broken (and unending) connections, her fight to place one foot in front of the other carries the reader along to a satisfying ending that will haunt you for days after reading.

Cover for the shadow beside her by Elizabeth s Devecchi. Little girl walking through a war-torn Italian village. A monster is visible in the shadows.

Preorder is live! The shadow beside her by Elizabeth Devecchi -an amazing horror set in WWII. Historical horror and supernatural suspense meet in this haunting horror novel about survival at any cost. To survive the war, Maria had to invite darkness in. Maria, a young Italian girl living in Lucca in 1944 wants the Germans to leave. She is tired of hiding her beloved superhero comics and misses her uncles. Everyone says the Americans are coming that they are getting closer. The Germans are retreating. But as they do, life gets more dangerous for the people in their path. When tragedy strikes, something awakens in Maria: a strength and instinct that will help her navigate the horrors around her

With the help of her friend Gianni and her faithful Maremma Sheepdog, Val, she heads to the Apennine Mountains to find a safe place to wait for the end of the war. But Gianni has a dangerous secret: a connection with something evil. A creature that wants more from them than they are willing to give to survive. In 1944, in a small town torn apart by war, young Maria will encounter more than one kind of monster in her struggle to survive.
