| Plot Summary of The Forbidden Game Volume 3: The Kill |
"Jenny Thornton has succeeded in defeating Julian twice in his games, but this time he isn't holding anything back. He kidnaps Jenny's boyfriend Tom and cousin Zach and takes them to the Shadow World. Jenny and the rest of her friends travel to the east coast to her grandfather's house and open a portal to the Shadow World.
They are thrown into an amusement park where they have to find three tokens to get to the island where Julian is holding Tom and Zach captive. Julian doesn't make it easy for them and he succeeds in getting closer to Jenny than ever before. To make things worse, the other Shadow Men are watching and waiting for Jenny to slip up."
