The Spirit's Shadow — Emily Page

A month after her sister left the Katjha for the Samaxti, Alicia has been unhappy. There is a war going, not only in the Spirit Realm, but in herself: between love and honor. After a confrontation with Eden, she's never felt so alone. Until the mysterious Trissa Ironbray arrives at the Katjha camp, when she adopts a new set of powers exclusive only to her title. Trissa is a powerful, brash girl with a tough past. She's never wanted to get close to anyone until she joined the Katjha. But she finds herself at home with someone she never saw coming. Now she is a force to contend with as she realizes she has a unique power and a role only she can fill. Amira Randall has unexpectedly been content since she became a Samaxti. She has found two friends and possible love with Mikhail Mason and Lavinia Everlark. But after a failed mission, she finds out that the power she thought was absolute is actually beginning to change, and the changes may reveal a sinister plan that has started to unfold that could change the Spirit Realm forever. As new characters are introduced and old characters are brought to the surface, Alicia, Amira, and Trissa must partake in a race against time to save not only the Spirit Realm, but the entire world in the second book of The Spirit Realm trilogy.
