What Happened?
This mystery is set in the northern wilds of England. Grace's husband disappeared a year prior while out walking their infant. The baby was returned unharmed in her carriage, but her father never came back. While Grace is trying to find some answers, she discovers she may not have known her husband as well as she thought she did. In a nice touch, while staying in this scary, old house she reads Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier.
Kathy G. (Alamo, CA)

Beneath the Shadows
From the beginning to the end, Beneath the Shadows is loaded with atmosphere and suspense and lots of fascinating occurrences..a baby carriage left on a porch, a missing husband and unusual neighbors.
The brutal winter in the Yorkshire Moors added to the suspense and mystery. It was fun to try and figure out what was going to happen as I was reading along.
I would definitely recommend the book. Beneath the Shadows would make a wonderful movie.

Shadows no more
Sara Foster caught my attention from the very beginning. "Beneath the Shadows" has all the neccessary ingredients - windswept moors, a mysterious disappearance, a damsel in distress, an eccentric, rather snobbish family, a somewhat mysterious stranger. A gothic tale that's not set in the past but set in the present. A book I really enjoyed reading.
Joan C. (Warwick, RI)

An Intriguing Journey
Who doesn't enjoy a good mystery? That is just what Sara Foster presents to readers in "Beneath the Shadows". Into the story is embedded sinister shadows and quirky happenings starting with the very first page. Who left Grace's baby outside her door? Where did her husband go? Are the neighbors really what they claim to be? Are they part of a sinister plot? You will just have to read the book to answer these questions, but I assure you it will be an intriguing journey.

Beneath the Shadows
I very readable book, primarily because the characters were interesting, the plot believable, and the setting wonderful...I mean Yorkshire's moors, it couldn't have been better. This book would certainly appeal to the reader, young or old, who enjoys a good mystery.
Mark O. (Wenatchee, WA)

“Beneath the Shadows” - moor secrets than a spectral hound
All of the hoped-for geography of the English moors is here: windswept, desolate with a raw beauty, the ghostly ambiance of ruins. But the game afoot isn’t a spectral hound. The lurking danger is a web of inbred secrets, the kind that arise in isolation (it takes a village).

One part of good story-telling is timing. “Beneath the Shadows” is artful at the slow revealing of character and history. Relationships evolve, closeted skeletons rattle, and even the weather turns eccentric. More gothic than thriller, more romance than mystery, there is still enough narrative drive to keep readers turning pages at the speed limit.

Beneath the Shadows
I was pulled into this book from the beginning – loving the lyrical descriptions which set the scene and atmosphere. The author did a fine job of weaving in the threads of past and present and interweaving the different characters. I found the story compelling and read the book virtually straight through. A disappointment was that the literary tone with which the book opened was not carried throughout, settling for a more ordinary, somewhat choppy, approach as the story progressed. Nonetheless, I enjoyed the book and think lovers of mystery novels will be intrigued as the author sustained the suspense and mystery surrounding Adam’s disappearance until the very end.
Kathleen W. (New Brighton,, MN)

BENEATH THE SHADOWS...You'll be surprised!
"They should be home"...what mother or caregiver has not had that selfsame thought when the time is late and loved ones are unaccounted for? Moments later, baby Millie is mysteriously found safe and sound on the front step in her carriage, Adam is nowhere in sight, and the reader is instantly launched into Grace's journey to find answers to this appearance/disappearance conundrum. BENEATH THE SHADOWS by Sara Foster is an impressive first offering by an author who shows tremendous promise in this debut novel. With the English moor as character in its own right, we are moved along in and among those people who populate Grace's world as layers of the mystery are gradually peeled away. I read this novel in two days because... I JUST HAD TO KNOW! I hope we will be hearing more from Sara Foster...SOON!
