Yesterday's Shadow is an intriguing tale of calculated betrayal and deceptions that unfolds with unexpected twists. Ian McBride and his attorney friend encounter a pair of attractive women in Charleston and plan romance on beautiful Hilton Head Island. But are any of the four who they appear to be? The designing women each have a private agenda. They clash with each other as well as the men-a four-way personality tangle ensues and male-female chemistry ignites. But, the island paradise mood is soon torn by a deadly kidnapping and extortion plot. Intrigue and tensions spike-the criminal conspiracy must be stopped. However, one mistake could cost the lives of Ian and those close to him.
