Two tours of Afghanistan have left Matt Graydon, 28, shattered by battle. Now he must return home to his family’s farm to care for his estranged mother Shirley, who is fighting her own war of early-onset Alzheimer’s. Yet while the struggle with their demons threatens to unravel them both, Matt and Shirley come to discover each other in a way they never could have imagined. A commanding and emotionally volatile novel of war, fear, and love, Shadowlands is an enthralling and touching exploration of a man and his mother’s battle with their enemies, both known and unknown. Unpredictable and explosive, it is ultimately a story of strength and forgiveness. “A LOVELY AND HAUNTING STORY THAT BRIDGES TIME AND GENERATIONS IN A WAY THAT, AT TIMES, CAN FEEL ALMOST RELIGIOUS.” —DOUGLAS COUPLAND
