This boxed set contains all six books in the YA Paranormal Mystery / YA Urban Fantasy Shade series. Although this series deals with a number of serious issues—drug and alcohol abuse, cutting, and disturbing world events—it's primarily about a teenaged girl finding out who she really is and that she's capable of so much more than she ever thought possible. And there’s lots of magic! As Shade excels in magic school, which she begins attending in Book 3, she’s sent abroad as a foreign exchange student where she continues to solve crimes related to ghosts and other magical creatures.
