GIRL CODES SERIES 1 | BOOK 2 : The Deadly Shade of Zuli- Paperback
The Shade of Zuli: Book 2
Zuli thought she could outrun the past—turn the page, fix her crown, and start fresh. But something has begun to pull her back. A whisper. A presence. A shadow that refuses to stay buried.
What starts as a strange connection quickly spirals into obsession. She begins seeing herself in someone else's silhouette—a woman once adored, once feared, now long gone... or so everyone thought. The deeper Zuli sinks, the more intoxicating the darkness becomes. But playing with ghosts has consequences, and she’s about to learn how easily admiration can turn into possession.
Old flames resurface, new enemies crawl out of the woodwork, and Zuli’s once clear path forward now twists into something darker—and more thrilling. Will she lose herself to the ghost of a woman who refused to be forgotten, or finally step into a power that was always meant to be hers?
Darkly glamorous, wildly unhinged, and dangerously addictive, The Dead Shade of Zuli is a bold, twisted ride through heartbreak, identity, and the art of revenge—with stilettos on and secrets ready to burn.
