Publisher's summary

The end was just the beginning....

When Grace was 20, she had a front-row seat to the end of the world. What was once the perfect suburban life became a daily fight to stay alive. All that was is now gone forever. Determined, she prepares for what the future brings, armed with her instincts, the desire to protect her loved ones, and her iron will to survive. Just as Grace and her family adjust to this new uncertain environment, a much more terrifying threat emerges from within the darkness, one even more petrifying than the apocalypse itself….

Told from two points in time leading up to one epic showdown, this twisty, riveting, and terrifying account of a modern post-apocalyptic tale is a ride listeners will not forget.

Great post apocalyptic book with monster twist!

I liked this enough to search for book 2 ( not available yet)

Family, end of world, dealing with human scum. The dad seemingly had them prepare for it their entire life monsters & all ! Lone survivor brings the fight to them!

Little quirks with writing though! Heroine talking to partner we must go save her ….. uhhh people typically say “ we have to go save her” these are sprinkled throughout!! Its not how people talk in everyday life .!

Thank God for this amazing narrator

Personally, I thought the story stunk if it wasn’t for this amazing narrator and her enthusiasm in the way she just made things more exciting I would’ve fell asleep or not finished the book. It was so much stuff in there that didn’t need to be there and it made it kind of boring. I did like the ending though

Terrifying at times (in a good way!)

What Lurks in the Shadows, by S.C. Shannon, is a terrifying realistic story of a post apocalyptic world. Our heroine, Grace Baker, is girl in her twenties, still trying to find herself, when her country is bombarded. Despite everything, for awhile, Grace is one of the lucky ones, she and her family got away just in time. However, their luck is running out and something horrific is hunting humans. Will they survive the end of the world?
The narrator did a wonderful job in this audio version. Some parts were really scary! I found the story a bit repetitive in the middle, but the final chapters had a very good pace. Definitely worth the time ;)
