2421 AD-300 years after the second coming of Joshua-and two months after the events of The Human.
Still recovering from the loss of Beth Raven, Adam is sent by his superior in the Church of Joshua on a questionable mission to a research Abbey.
It's the last thing he wants to do, and Lucky has warned him that it's a trap.
But then Lucky has been acting strangely himself lately.
And when Adam arrives at the Abbey, matters quickly become complicated.
He spots a woman who looks strangely familiar . . .
. . . he's initiated into the mysteries of deep theology . . .
. . . he's reunited with a friend from his former life . . .
. . . and once again he is confronted with murder.
If you like alternate future worlds, sci-fi, a good mystery-or if you just want to know what Adam Kinde's next adventure is all about-you want to read Shadow of the Human.
