Set amid the windswept prairies of Wyoming and the rounded mountains of Southwest Virginia, Shadows follows the story of Dana Stullman, whose world turns upside down when her boyfriend dies in a car accident.

At 22, she finds herself moving across the country to escape reminders of the tragedy and the life that preceded it. Becoming lonelier than she could have imagined, Stullman finds solace in an unexpected friendship, but her life remains paralyzed until a crisis in the wind-swept Wyoming wilderness forces her to confront the past and choose her path into the future.
