Some trials are fought in court. Others burn everything down.

Sheriff Rebecca West knows she’s being watched. She’s seen the same car parked along the road—always at a distance, always watching. Even more concerning, the man with damning evidence against the senator tied to her parents’ deaths claims he’s being followed too.

Something’s very wrong…again.

But she doesn’t have time to worry about all that because she’s staring at a blazing inferno on the shores of Shadow Island—where a boat sits perched atop a car, both engulfed in flames. The wreck is baffling. The boat must have hit land at full speed, launching into the parking lot before exploding. But why didn’t it slow down? And more chillingly—why is the man at the helm already dead, stabbed before the crash?

This isn’t just an accident. It’s a message.

With half the puzzle pieces missing and the other half reduced to ash, Rebecca and her team must fight fire with fire, all while watching her back as the past closes in. Because a cornered man with nothing left to lose isn’t just the most dangerous thing on the planet—he won’t go down alone. He’ll take everyone with him.

Shadow’s Collision, the nineteenth installment of the Shadow Island Series by Mary Stone and Lori Rhodes, will make you think twice about disturbing the peace.
