Twinned Shadows
Twinned Shadows by Paul Gilbert is a harrowing psychological thriller that follows the fractured journey of Sabastian and Samantha Moreau, orphaned twins bound by blood, love, and shared trauma. Raised in the cold grip of Stonebridge Hollow, an orphanage more prison than refuge, they endure years of systemic abuse, psychological torment, and the ever-present threat of the predatory Mr. Halvorsen. Sabastian's fierce protection of Samantha drives him to the edge of violence, culminating in a brutal assault that leads to their forced separation-he to Greystone Juvenile Detention, she to a foster home carefully designed to sever their bond.
But some ties don't break so easily.
As Sabastian adapts to life behind bars, surrounded by a brutal hierarchy of violent offenders, his protective instincts evolve into something darker-a calculated hunger for revenge. His body may be caged, but his spirit sharpens into a weapon. Meanwhile, Samantha, placed in a seemingly idyllic suburban home, fights to suppress the trauma that haunts her, struggling with isolation, guilt, and the unbearable weight of survival.
Years pass. Both twins are shaped by the violence that tore them apart-Sabastian becoming colder, more lethal in the shadows of Greystone; Samantha forging a quiet strength, determined to build a life despite the scars. But fate has other plans. A series of grisly murders across the state-all marked by a shard of broken mirror, a symbol of fractured innocence-draws Samantha back into the shadows of their shared past. Now a law enforcement officer, she is tasked with stopping a killer who targets abusers... a killer whose methods feel hauntingly familiar.
As their paths spiral toward collision, Twinned Shadows becomes a gripping game of cat and mouse between justice and vengeance, survival and destruction. Are the twins still tethered by love, or has time and torment turned them into strangers on opposite sides of a bloody reckoning?
In this searing exploration of trauma, redemption, and the inescapable pull of the past, Paul Gilbert crafts a haunting narrative where love and violence become indistinguishable, and the line between protector and monster blurs
