The Book of Blood and Shadow is a hard book to describe. On one hand, it is full of action, intrigue, mystery, and betrayal. On the other hand, it has parts that are slow and might put some readers off. I have to say, I did not have any problems with the slow parts, because they were fascinating to me. Nora is working with her best friend, Chris, and his college roommate, Max, to help translate 400 year old letters from Latin to English for high school credit. These letters hold the secret to an alchemical creation that shadowy groups have sought for hundreds of years. Nora's work on the project puts both her and her friends in terrible danger. Nora begins her story after Chris has been murdered, and Max, the prime suspect, disappears. She and her friend Adrianne must travel to Prague to help clear his name and find the real murderer.
