Synopsis

For over 150 years, Lamont Cranston has been The Shadow.

Possessed with an array of mental and physical powers, Cranston—a New York society-man turned crusader—uses his abilities in pursuit of justice.

When a series of deadly natural disasters strike the planet, The Shadow immediately sets out to identify the human threat…

A disgruntled graduate student? The power-hungry President of the Americas? Or could it be Shiwan Khan, The Shadow’s fiercest enemy?

Standing with The Shadow and his crime-fighting associates are his long love, Margo Lane, and his great-great granddaughter, Maddy.

Will they triumph or perish? Whether they rise or fall, they'll do it together.
