She fell for the wrong woman ... now it's going to cost her.


Mix one part espionage, one part romance, and two parts secrets and lies, and you've got a lethal cocktail as intoxicating as midnight and warm brandy. Amidst the backdrop of New York City during World War II, this tale of two women, inextricably linked by duty and desire, grabs the reader from the start and never lets go.


One telephone call changes budding reporter Jenny Ryan's life forever. Longing to do her part toward winning the war, and guilt-ridden over her part in the death of her research scientist father, an anonymous caller sets her on a path of intrigue and danger by pinning her father's death on the man selling secrets to the enemy, wealthy industrialist Marcus Forrester. Armed with absolution and patriotic duty, she'll stop at nothing to bring him down. She didn't count on falling for the key to her plan-Forrester's mistress, Kathryn Hammond.


Kathryn Hammond isn't who she appears to be. A popular nightclub singer with elegant grace and stunning good looks, she shoulders a tragic past that haunts her soul. Stuck stateside carrying out dead-end missions for the OSS while the war rages in Europe, her life is turned upside down when Jenny Ryan becomes her latest dead-end mission and awakens the enemy that could cost her everything-desire.


Lush with the sights and sounds of the 1940s, author J.E. Leak tells the story of Kathryn and Jenny, caught in a reluctant slow burn as they battle against the onslaught of negative forces that threaten to keep them apart. This spellbinding journey will carry you deep into the shadow of the past and have you turning pages well into the night.


In the Shadow of the Past is the first book in the noir Shadow series. If you've ever yearned for something beyond your reach, follow Kathryn and Jenny's epic love story as they navigate duty and an unrelenting longing to save each other, despite the surmounting obstacles and a world gone mad.
