The Shaw Confessions retells and continues the Mara Dyer story from Noah Shaw’s perspective. The Becoming of Noah Shaw (2017) starts the companion series, followed by The Reckoning of Noah Shaw (2018).
The Last Confessions of Mara Dyer and Noah Shaw (2020) wraps the storyline by bringing both characters’ perspectives together. Readers who finished the original Mara Dyer trilogy and wanted to see events through Noah’s eyes will find answers to questions left open in those books. The shift in narrator changes the tone noticeably, since Noah carries his own secrets and a different relationship to the supernatural elements.
Hodkin recommends reading the original Mara Dyer trilogy first, as the Shaw Confessions assume familiarity with those events. The three books work as a direct continuation rather than a standalone story.
