It's often said, but usually not with such eloquence, that the one thing you can't outrun is you. In LET THE SHADOWS FALL BEHIND YOU Kathy-Diane Leveille writes with passion and assurance of a woman who risks sacrificing far too much to try to erase the things she knows are true.
"LET THE SHADOWS FALL BEHIND YOU is a haunting story of disappearance and loss and, ultimately, of redemption. Weaving together a world of family loyalties and family lies, of broken bonds and of those that endure, it combines the nuance of poetry with all the suspense of a thriller."
-Nino Ricci Author of The Origin of Species

Praise for LET THE SHADOWS FALL BEHIND YOU:
It's the quality of the writing that makes the read worthwhile...A very promising debut.

"Leveille is brilliant when it comes to building suspense. She drops little bombs, then waits several pages to spell it all out, which had me burning through the pages like crazy to find out what happens." -Diary of an Eccentric
"A murder, a past still preying upon the souls of those involved, is always an unwelcome and intrusive guest. LET THE SHADOWS FALL BEHIND YOU tells that chronicle with poignancy, wistful descriptions of small town life and punchy characterizations that expose hard truths. Sadly rich and beautiful writing."-Don Graves CANADIAN MYSTERIES The Hamilton Spectator.
LET THE SHADOWS FALL BEHIND YOU (Paperback edition)
Welcome! Thanks to all the kind readers who took the time to let me know how much they enjoyed my first book Roads Unravelling. I hope you love the characters in my new novel Let the Shadows Fall Behind You every bit as much. I feel as if the members of the childhood all-girl club Tuatha-de Dananns are family: Brannagh, Annie, Diane and Tish.
Happy reading,
Kathy-Diane
