I must say that "Dark Shadows" is among the best written work in the thriller category. The author draws up a plot filled with suspense and surprises that will have you glued to every word you read. The development of each scenario and complication is skillfully undertaken. The vivid descriptions that are initially given set the standard throughout the rest of the novel and we are never at a loss for compelling imagery.Vashist does a wonderful play on her main characters. Eric, the would be villain from a bad past, finds himself in a position where he must rise to face a destiny that has been thrust upon him for the sake of himself and the fate of Eliska's race. Eliska, the beauty and somewhat damsel in distress, has used up her last thread of hope and does the only thing she can to save her race. As these two lives become intertwined we are drawn into a story of two beings totally different but who are now one in their determination against a common evil.All in all Vashist does a wonderful job presenting such a masterly written work. I am eager to see more from this stellar writer.
