High praise for The Shadow Between Us

Dear readers,

My new novel, The Shadow Between Us, will be out March 21. I've had some amazing comments from bestselling authors who read an early copy. Here's what they are saying. But remember too, your comments are just as important. I can't wait to hear what you have to say about this one as this story is very close to my heart. It's a story I wanted to write since I began writing novels but perhaps I wasn't quite mature enough or ready for it. Anyway, I won't give the plot away, but I hope it moves you to read it, as much as it moved me when I wrote it! All best wishes. Carol

Poignant, emotional, and breathtaking…In THE SHADOW BETWEEN US, Olivia is running from something we’ve all feared and hope to never face. Carol Mason’s effortless storytelling and exquisite writing will keep you turning the pages until the book’s stunning and surprising ending. Bring tissues! — Kerry Lonsdale, Amazon Charts & Wall Street Journal bestselling author

‘Acutely observed, emotionally honest, utterly brilliant writing, with a shocker of a twist that took my breath away.’ Melissa Hill, bestselling author.

A beautifully written story of how we connect with each other in terrible crisis, told with wit and humanity – and one hell of a final twist. I loved it.
Louise Candlish, author of Sunday Times bestseller OUR HOUSE

A skillful compassionate journey into the aftereffects of trauma, The Shadow Between Us deftly explores what happens when we hold tight to the secrets we keep, and they hold tight to us too.
Amy Hatvany, bestselling author

A haunting heartfelt exploration of guilt and hidden turmoil, of running away, of turning back to face the shadows. I loved it.
Charity Norman, bestselling author of See You In September

I read THE SHADOW BETWEEN US in two sittings. Carol Mason has created a fast-paced novel. At its centre is a woman whose heart has been broken. She is on the run from herself. Carol takes us on an emotional journey which keep us gripped right to the very last twist, which hit me in the solar plexus. I had not seen it coming."
Carol Drinkwater, bestselling author and actress


'We write to get beyond what we think we can't get over.' This book is a haunting exploration of the corrosive power of grief and the redemption to be found in understanding each other and ourselves. Caroline Bond, bestselling author of The Second Child.
