The lyrics to all the songs in
Your Shadow,
the country-music album at the heart of this novel, can be found at the back of the book. These tunes are referred to throughout and may just contain some clues about the events that unfold along the way. And if you’d like to listen to the actual title track itself, and other songs from the album, recently recorded in Nashville, go to
www.jefferydeaver.com
for information on downloads.
To most listeners, the title track, “Your Shadow,” is simply a love song.
Some feel differently.
