I'm a bit old-fashioned and therefore not a great fan of stories that can't keep their timeline straight. I'll go with a prologue – even if it's becoming a bit of clichéd way of creating a mystery at the beginning of a story – but switching between 'now' and 'a fortnight ago' – just feels a little lazy, a way of creating tension when all else fails. That, however, is my only little gripe about ''From The Shadows'' and I admit, whether I like it or not, it does more or less work.
The fact that it had me checking the locks is entirely beside the point!
If you enjoy this, check out White's early work here [[:Category:Neil White|Neil Whitehere]] or for more of the best of British that might also have you checking your doors we can recommend [[Like This, For Ever by S J Bolton]].
