Shadowkin - Reflections in Glass

J. K. Maddox

Synopsis

In a city drowned in fog and glass, a woman starts noticing what no one else sees. The mirrors in her apartment shift when she’s still. Movements echo back, but never quite line up. She can’t tell if she’s watching herself or something wearing her face.

Her once steady life begins to splinter. Conversations slip sideways, memories fade at the edges, and every attempt to ground herself only deepens the cracks. The more she searches her past for clarity, the more reality itself comes undone.

Is this madness creeping in, or something calculated an unseen hand rewriting her story, mirror by mirror?

Each day, the boundary between self and imitation thins. Who is she when the reflection refuses to follow? And what if the mirror blinks first?

A chilling psychological suspense where truth fractures and sanity wavers. The most dangerous enemy may be the face staring back.

Would you trust the version of yourself that knows what you’ve tried to forget?

***

This novel is part of SHADOWKIN: The Shadow of Death, a chilling series of interconnected standalone paranormal thrillers, where every shadow hides a secret and every story brings you closer to the darkness.

In the hidden alleys of forgotten towns and the broken edges of memory, the Shadowkin wait. They’re not just creatures in the dark they’re shaped from guilt, grief, and the secrets we can’t bury.

SHADOWKIN: The Shadow of Death drags you into a world where walls breathe, shadows whisper, and silence presses like a weight. Each tale begins with a quiet unease and ends with a truth you don’t want to face: the Shadowkin aren’t strangers at all, but the pieces of ourselves we fear the most.

Enter these standalone stories where every truth cuts deeper, and every ending opens another door.

Normally, this might not present too much of a problem. But in River's case, he needs to find a cure…fast. He's one of the vampire elite, and after his secret leaks out, other vampires want to kill him so they can usurp his position. 
River also has the problem of a team of vampire hunters who've been after him for ages, trying to kill him, too.
