A woman's unexpected connection to a nineteenth-century writer changes her life in the new novel from the author of Crossing Washington Square
Clara Fitzgerald's recent losses have set her adrift, personally and professionally.

With her sister in tow and the help of Kay, a retired Shelley scholar, Clara embarks on a search for the author's long lost journals and letters. As a bond among the three women grows, and as the profound connection between the past and present deepens, Clara comes closer to realizing where her heart truly belongs.

From Booklist
Clara Fitzgerald has been deeply affected by the recent death of her mother and has lost interest in her stalled career as a college professor. She can only watch as her fiancé Anthony’s career as a scientist, researching a new anti-cancer drug, is quickly ascending. Clara’s mother always told her they were related to Mary Shelley, the author of Frankenstein, and at a loss with what to do with herself, she throws herself into researching Mary Shelley and is stunned to find out her mother was right. Spurred on by this discovery, and aided by Kay, an elderly Shelley scholar, Clara begins to search through boxes of Kay’s old papers, looking for Shelley’s long-lost childhood letters and journals. As she gets deeper into her research, Anthony begins acting strangely, appearing to become lost in his work, and Clara begins to worry even as Mary Shelley’s papers create a link between Clara’s past and her future. Out of the Shadows is a clever novel that smartly intertwines literary fiction with modern science. --Hilary Hatton
