Shadow Dove follows a group of survivors, family, and allies—pulled into a hidden world of power, control, and betrayal—where their lives collide with adversaries behind a secretive global network known as the Sadean Libertine Network (SLN).

Main Characters

• Mimi Lee/ Shadow Dove: A highly intelligent, emotionally guarded teenager gets abducted in Montreal and forced into the Sadean Libertine Network (SLN), a clandestine syndicate serving powerful global elites. After escaping captivity, Mimi is driven to rescue Amanda, and the memory of her mother’s sacrifice. She transforms from former “Emo” into a power force leader, aka, the Shadow Dove.
• Amanda Turner: Mimi’s closest friend (BFF). Amanda is athletic, confident, and socially popular. She shares the same birthday as Mimi, forming a deep lifelong bond between them. Abducted alongside Mimi, Amanda becomes psychologically manipulated by the SLN and is eventually turned into a controlled asset—an unwilling operative within the very network that Mimi wants to dismantle.
• James “Jimmy” Lee: A brilliant billionaire technologist and co-founder of a futuristic AI platform powered by photonic computing. Beneath his public persona, Jimmy is secretly a CIA Non-Official Cover (NOC) operative and possesses rare expertise in sentient AI development. Following Mimi’s escape and transformation, Jimmy becomes her mentor, strategist, and technological backbone, supporting her covert operations as the Shadow Dove.
• Klara Neumann-Lee: Chief of Neurology at NYU Langone, devoted mother to Mimi and wife to Jimmy. Klara is a formidable intellect with her own covert past. Fiercely protective of her family, she refuses to accept the limitations of law enforcement during Mimi’s disappearance. Her closest confidant is Dr. Olivia Cross—whose hidden ambitions later emerge with devastating consequences.
