Lily of the Shadows

By: M. L. Bullock

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Lily Stuart is done being protected.

After a terrifying encounter with an ancient evil, life at Seven Sisters has become anything but quiet. The cursed hymnal may be buried, but it still hums beneath the house, whispering of a power Lily barely understands—and one she can no longer ignore. Her Aunt Carrie Jo, once a steady guide through the unseen world, is struggling with her own dimmed gifts, leaving Lily more isolated than ever.

Whatever was awakened in Lily didn’t come with instructions.

Restless and desperate for distance, Lily longs for the open road—for anywhere that isn’t haunted by mirrors that watch back and dreams that refuse to stay asleep. But darkness doesn’t stay contained to old mansions and buried relics. It seeps into the everyday corners of Mobile: whispers in quiet hallways, a friend plagued by waking nightmares, a creeping cold that follows Lily into sunlit rooms.

Something new has taken root.

This darkness feeds on fear, sharpens doubt into obsession, and bends ordinary anxieties into something monstrous. And it knows Lily. It senses the raw, volatile power coiled inside her—power that hasn’t been shaped, trained, or restrained.

This isn’t a fight for a seasoned dreamwalker or a family steeped in legacy.

This fight belongs to Lily.

She may be young, but she is no longer harmless. The shadows have learned her name. And if Lily doesn’t learn how to control the dangerous truth awakening within her, the next soul claimed by the darkness could be her own.

Lily of the Shadows launches Dreamwalker, a Southern Gothic paranormal series where inherited power becomes a weapon, nightmares walk in daylight, and one young woman steps fully into the role fate has been circling all along.
