Shadow Service Death To Spies by Cavan Scott is the third graphic novel
in the Shadow Service series. Gina Meyer is a new agent in the MI666
agency and she is still getting used to her new teammates. She is trying
to master and control her magical powers.
Gina is working with
her new colleagues to try and figure out who is murdering undercover
agents all over the world. The secret agents are being killed by
monsters that are inspired by folklore. No one seems to be safe,
including Gina and her coworkers, as someone is using the monsters to do
their dirty work.
While Gina is investigating the murders, she
is also working with Quinn to find the truth behind her birth. Gina
feels that her mother might not be her real mother and also suspects
that she is hiding something from Gina. As Gina and Quinn probe into
Gina’s childhood, they realize that someone in her past might be related
to the recent string of deaths.
Gina is unsure who to trust
after she’s been previously betrayed by her loved ones. This was shown
in the previous novels. To add to her feelings of betrayal, one of her
teammates switches sides and becomes the enemy. She fears that the
person targeting the other secret agents might be someone Gina is close
to.
I read the other two volumes of Shadow Service and enjoyed
them. The latest installment was just as enjoyable and action packed as
the previous two books. In this volume, we learn more about Gina’s
background and see her grow into her role as a shadow agent. She also
learns to trust her gut instincts and becomes more aware of her growing
powers. The graphic novel does end on a cliff hanger and the books need
to be read in order. The graphic novel does have scenes of graphic and
violent deaths. Not recommended for really young readers due to this.
