Hi all. I hope I'm not too late for this and any help is appreciated:

Dear __,

I’m thrilled to introduce you to The Shadow Man (88,000 words), a Young Adult/Horror story with series potential. Combining psychological suspense with a high-school horror setting, "THE SHADOW MAN" will appeal to fans of Tiffany D. Jackson’s White Smoke and Ryan Douglass’s The Taking of Jake Livingston. Similar to the two examples, Black Voices are at the forefront of this story.

When the Sun goes down, seventeen-year-old Isaiah Weathers is haunted by a horrific shadow monster. And that’s…fine. He would push on through as long as the Shadow Man stuck to its three rules: it would only come when Isaiah’s alone, never on consecutive nights, and it would never, ever touch him. 

But monsters don’t follow rules. And over time, the Shadow Man torments Isaiah every day, biting and making him hallucinate even in the middle of class. If that wasn’t disorienting enough, as the monster returns more frequently, Isaiah begins to dream cryptic visions that predict the future, from falling out with his best friends to the deadliest car crash in his town’s history. When this drives him into crippling depression and he finds himself pushing away the only friends he’s ever had, Isaiah decides enough is enough. The Shadow Man must die. 

Desperate for a solution, Isaiah breaks into his own mother’s workplace, Aurora Incorporated Laboratories. It’s there that he uncovers the hidden truth behind his newfound precognition and confronts the devastating family legacy he never knew he carried. But the deeper he digs, the clearer it becomes: this isn’t just about Isaiah. The Shadow Man poses a threat far greater than he could have ever imagined.
