About the book

Claire Kovalik is the leader of a salvage crew nearing the end of their contract when they intercept a distress signal in deep space. They discover the Aurora, a luxury starliner that vanished twenty years ago with thousands of wealthy passengers on board. Upon boarding, Claire and her team witness evidence of extreme violence and madness. As they navigate the shifting corridors of the derelict ship, they experience vivid hallucinations and physical trauma, struggling to determine if the cause is a psychological contagion or a supernatural presence.

This book is for readers of space horror and gothic mysteries who enjoy narrow environments and high-stakes survival. It appeals to those who want a blend of corporate conspiracy and haunted-house mechanics set against the isolation of the cosmos. Readers finish the book with a visceral understanding of how trauma impacts survival and how corporate negligence functions on a galactic scale. The story provides a claustrophobic experience centered on the fragility of the human mind under extreme pressure.
