The Shadowless by R.J. Garcia

Enter a fantasy land where nothing is as it seems. As children escaping the horrors of abuse, Mae and her sister Emmie fled to the strange woods around the family cottage in Willow’s End. There they played with a young child who lived in the wilds. When Emmie disappears, Mae becomes entangled in a fantasy world that helps her find her sister’s resting place. But something else has followed out of the woods, and it’s not there to help.

The Shadowless is a fantasy that reads like a thriller with heart-pounding action and twists that come out of the dark right towards your head. This is the first in the series, and you’ll be begging for it to keep going.
