When the lines between the supernatural and humanity blur, only one man stands in the shadows to protect them both.

In a world where vampires, werewolves, witches, angels, and demons walk unseen among humans, The Collective-a powerful secret organization-rules from the shadows. They govern supernatural factions, maintaining fragile peace and balance, but dark forces are stirring, threatening to upend everything.

Gabriel Cross, a hybrid outcast scorned by both vampires and werewolves, has spent his life on the margins, guided by one principle: to protect humanity from the dangers lurking in the night. Cold, calculating, and impossibly alluring, Gabriel thrives in the shadows until a series of gruesome murders draws him into a conspiracy that reaches into the very heart of The Collective.

Lin Harris, a tenacious forensic specialist, stumbles upon an impossible blood sample at a crime scene-one that defies all logic and biology. When her investigation leads her to Gabriel, she finds herself dragged into a world she never knew existed. Determined and unshaken, Lin becomes the only human capable of challenging Gabriel's icy resolve and unlocking the secrets he guards so fiercely.

Together, they must unravel the mystery of the murders, decipher ancient symbols, and confront a ruthless enemy bent on destroying both worlds. But as their partnership deepens, so does the dangerous connection between them-one that threatens to consume them in ways neither anticipated.

Filled with dark intrigue, heart-stopping action, and a magnetic romance that defies fate, The Collective's Shadow is a gripping supernatural thriller about love, power, and the price of fighting against the darkness.

In the battle between the light and shadows, will they uncover the truth-or lose themselves in the process?All Rights Reserved
