In 'Shadowshaper', Sierra Santiago, a teenager from Brooklyn, uncovers the secrets of shadowshaping, a magical tradition that allows practitioners to infuse ancestral spirits into paintings, music, and stories.
When a corpse crashes a party and her stroke-ridden grandfather warns her of impending danger, Sierra must navigate this supernatural world with the help of her friend Robbie, a talented graffiti artist.
As she delves deeper, she learns that someone is killing shadowshapers one by one, and she must unravel her family's past, confront the killer, and save the future of shadowshaping.
The book is rich in Latinx and Black culture, exploring themes of family, community, and the power of art and magic.
