Things Half in Shadow by Alan Finn6/6/2023 Perhaps the greatest strength of the novel is Finn’s recognition that playing with history doesn’t amount to much without strong characters. The story mainly follows Edward and Lucy, both of whom are instantly likeable. THINGS HALF IN SHADOW is very much about the journey, the incremental revelations about the main characters, and the mystery they are investigating. Throughout the tale we learn of Edward’s dark past and get wrapped up in a story filled with adventure, intrigue, and the supernatural.Īs far as the plot goes that’s as much as I want to say. It all starts simple enough, with the investigation of a young medium by the name of Lucy Collins. THINGS HALF IN SHADOW follows Edward Clark, a young crime reporter in 1869 Philadelphia, who is asked to investigate and debunk the city’s many psychic mediums. Alan Finn’s novel, THINGS HALF IN SHADOW ( Amazon), scratches that itch nicely. From Jasper Kent to Sarah Pinborough to Robert McCammon… I love it. I’m already a lover of history, and I can’t get enough supernatural stuff. Adding supernatural elements to Historical Fiction is one of my favorite things.
