Sometimes spaceships disappear with everyone on board - the Lost Ships. But sometimes they come back, strangely altered, derelict, and rumoured to be full of horrors.

Opal is on a mission. She's been seeking something her whole life. Something she is willing to die for. And she thinks it might be on a Lost Ship.

Opal has stolen Clarissa, an experimental AI-controlled spaceship, from the military. Together they have tracked down a Lost Ship, in a lonely nebula far from colonised space.

The Lost Ship is falling into the gravity well of a neutron star, and will soon be truly lost ... forever. Legends say the ships harbour death, but there's no time for indecision.

Opal gears up to board it. She's just one woman, entering an alien and lethal environment. But perhaps with the aid of Clarissa's intelligence - and an armoured spacesuit - Opal may stand a chance.

Industry Reviews

"Two delightfully strong female protagonists. One is human; one is AI. The dialogue between them is priceless: sometimes snarky, sometimes comforting, all times entertaining."

-Into The Abyss

"Epic SciFi at its best."

-Koeur's Book Reviews

"I loved the two strong female leads who make split second decisions from limited options, showing true grit and resilience."

-Jera's Jamboree

"Intelligent science fiction: much, much smarter than your typical run-and-gun sci-fi romp."

-High Fever Books

"Thrilling space horror with an unconventional female friendship at the core."

"I loved this book. It's fast, scary, dark at times, and features a young woman I grew to admire and root for in her quest."

-Brew and Books Review

"A fantastic sci-fi horror with an incredibly strong and memorable female protagonist. It's a perfect example of why science fiction and horror go together so well."

-The Behrg

"An action-packed story line that doesn't let you pause for breath, a flawed, female protagonist you can't help liking, and a ship AI that seems almost human."

-Pink Quill Books

"A cracking read, evoking the horror worlds of space such as Alien, Pandorum or Event Horizon."

-Altered Instinct

"Opal is a fantastic character: complex, heroic, loyal, strong and long long overdue in fiction."
