Mason "Brick" Redstone has always been different, but the genetic abilities he's kept secret are only the beginning. Born with extraordinary powers after genetic experiments on his parents and sister, Brick has hidden some abilities even from those closest to him. When his science professor—secretly the twin of the enigmatic Zindriya—convinces his classmate Latisha "Tish" Owusu to partner with him on a project, the walls around Brick’s secrets begin to crumble.

Brick has secretly loved her for years. Though she initially resists, feeling conflicted about him, their time working together reveals sides of the man she never expected. Slowly, her feelings shift, and she finds herself falling in love.

Everything changes the night Brick is forced to reveal his powers to protect Tish and her family from her psychotic ex-boyfriend. That same night, Tish realizes her love for him, but before she can act on it, Zindriya’s agents try to kidnap him. During a deadly brawl, Brick taps into the Akashic Field for the first time, a cosmic plane connecting the threads of creation and chaos. While saving Tish's life, he unintentionally shares his abilities with her, but it leaves him powerless, and he's taken. Desperate to find him, Tish uses her newfound abilities to help Brick’s sister, Mara, track down where he’s being held.

Together again, Brick and Tish must unravel the conspiracy behind his kidnapping and the power behind the plot. As their bond deepens, they uncover shocking truths about his origins, all while navigating treacherous paths of love, betrayal, and hidden family legacies. Eventually, they face an impossible entity that blurs the line between myth and science, the true power behind the conspiracy.

From secret labs haunted by ghostly whispers to clashes with beings that defy the laws of nature, "In The Ghost's Shadow" is a gripping saga where dark fantasy meets sci-fi, infused with high-stakes action, threaded with rigorous science and ignited by a pulsating romantic core. Will Brick and Tish's newfound abilities be enough to prevent a planetary apocalypse, or will the dark energy surging through them cause it?
