Secrets in the Shadows

In the book “Secrets In The Shadows”  written by “Anne E. Schraffer” who has written about +50 books about many genres but this book falls with certain series the “Bluford Series” which is set in a urban setting with high school students normally. To make a good and detailed overview of the book i would i start by saying in the story consisted of about three main characters, a young man , young women and old man. The story took place in urban setting but some of the important points of the book are where in the beginning as that's when it introduces what the story is going to be about or consist of as a beautiful young lady comes to the school of the young boy and falls in love with her the young boy becomes fooled under her looks and is also fooled to buy a very expensive necklace but while doing it,it took a very dramatic climax. to add to this the theme i would say find better solutions to your problems instead of being rushed or pressured into things                                                                                                                            

To summarize the book best as possible without giving the major key points away i would say that in a high school where a girl moves to and finds a boy where she’s only interested for the wrong reasons.The is pressured into doing something that isn’t a very good idea, now he will suffer the consequences deep inside or will he?…So to better help understand and develop the story,the story main characters are Roylin a young man of with the story revolves around him, Korie a young woman who hastily started the conflict in the book and Mr.Miller a close and dear friend to the main character. Now to give a good basic understanding of the conflict here's what it mainly is about, as the major conflict of the young boy Roylin develops as he “borrows” money from his best friend and father figure Mr.Miller he then discovers that he has been blamed of the supposal killing of his dear friend Mr.Miller after being pressured into buying something he can’t afford


I personally didn’t like it to much  it seemed to too slow paced it took long to get to the good part in the book (problem/solution) and once I got there it wasn't that interesting.From my point of view i believe the target audience would be some sort of urban person in high school that likes a book mixture of drama and mysterious type, but i wouldn’t say all readers would enjoy the book. I would say you pass on this book because there's more books with a better plot that can give you a more suspense,drama etc feeling.
