Shadows in the Wind: Malitia Adolescit (Evil Grows Up) is the third volume of Rob Steyn's epic saga of power, love, and betrayal.The innocence of youth is gone. Jamie Soper and Julie Capriot-once dreamers among Oxford's spires-now find themselves caught in a tightening web of corruption and conflict. As they pursue their ideals of empathy, justice, and conservation, they collide with forces far more ruthless than they imagined.Behind them looms William Braithwaite, whose childhood scars have hardened into something darker. His ambition begins to metastasize into a hunger for influence and control, and his reach stretches across continents-from boardrooms in London to the mineral-rich forests of Africa.In Malitia Adolescit, personal lives entwine with global stakes: corporate interests clash with fragile sanctuaries, loyalties fracture under pressure, and love is tested against the inexorable rise of violence and greed.This is the turning point where youthful hope is forced to contend with the brutal reality of a world governed by shadows.For readers of Robert Harris, John le Carré, and Ken Follett, Malitia Adolescit is a masterful blend of political thriller, historical fiction, and intimate human drama.
