Written by Creator/HerbieBrennan, ''The Shadow Project'' is a [=YA=] novel that tells the story of a British government-run operation to use people with enough imagination to project their conscious minds outside their bodies (mostly teenagers and young adults) spying on terrorists for the government, only to quickly discover forces far more terrifying and otherworldly at play.
!!Tropes:
* CassandraTruth: Danny is accused of murder and treason after truthfully claiming that another project official was killed by a strange monster that appeared out of nowhere. However, the surveillance tapes prove he is being honest.
* SkewedPriorities: When Danny's grandmother Dorothy has a stroke, the neighbor who finds her goes to her own house to call an ambulance to avoid the call being on Dorothy's phone bill, which is sweet but a bit absent-minded given the circumstances.
* TokenTrio: Danny, Opal and Michael, the main trio, are a Caucasian boy and girl from England and a black boy from Mali.
* WrongGenreSavvy: Sir Roland, Carradine, the kids, and other agents serving them think they are in a straightforward UsefulNotes/TheWarOnTerror SpyFiction story with ScienceFiction elements that they can plan for accordingly, when really they are in an UrbanFantasy DivineConflict story.
* VeryLooselyBasedOnATrueStory: The postscript notes that there was a real government-sponsored astral projection project in the 1980s that is a predecessor of the Shadow Project InUniverse.
