|summary=It would be unkind and certainly unfair to say that it was Stacey Grant's mother who was the cause of Stacey losing her job: she might well have been the trigger but it was her manager, Jeff Dodds, who used her request to work flexibly as an excuse to make her redundant. There was a lot of ''support'' for Stacey - the staff were as stunned as she was, but in terms of the people she could rely on, there were just a few. Her mother was out of the equation : it was her dementia which started the problem and her husband Steve was wrapped up in the fact that he'd just been promoted to board level in his job. There ''were'' the girls: the four of them had met at University and Stacey, Melissa, Beth and Gaby had been firm friends ever since. And there was Bruno the dog.

''Bane and Shadow'' picks up a year after the final events of the [[Hope and Red by Jon Skovron|first installment]] in the Empire of Storms series, which I highly recommend reading if you haven't already. Following the great characters we met in the previous novel, ''Bane and Shadow'' has even more action with brilliant battles, nail-biting tension and a new darkness to the story.
