A haunted spaceship. A missing sister. A thrill ride that will leave you breathless.
Absidy is a ghost magnet, a sensitive person spirits flock to when they can't cross over. After her brutal past, she spends her reclusive existence melting iron into bite-sized pieces. Whether ancient paper clips or nails, consuming iron is the only thing that keeps the ghosts away.
But when Absidy's sister goes missing in deep space, Absidy vows to find her. She boards the first ship she can - a ship that turns out to be haunted.
To keep the malicious ghosts from killing her, the alluring bad boy pilot gives her a small bundle of all the iron on the ship. But their growing relationship is tested with the crew's prying eyes and hidden secrets.
While the ship sails into deep space, it's not just her sister's life that Absidy fears for. It's her own, as well. Especially since her stash of iron has shrunk to zero.

Haunted Stars Series

A ghostly chill penetrated the hallway outside the infirmary, drilling into my bones with needle points. The sick, twisted part of me welcomed the cold because I knew it, could stick a label on its familiarity, when days ago I hadn't felt it at all, even though mine and everyone's breaths had caught in the air. 


I ran the glove on my broken hand along my itchy scales on the other. Maybe my theory about the ghosts still being inside me held weight. Maybe I was haunted, and the cold the rest of the crew had felt was because of me. Now, with the doppelganger's ghost on the ship, I had to hope I would be fine. I had iron to repel it, and I had fresh, happy parasites to spark my addiction. Once again, I was dressed in my corset, leather pants, boots, and ice pick necklaces - thanks to Ellison's help. And jammed down the front of my corset was the cylinder of consumectalons I'd filmed, only because I had nowhere else to currently put it. I was me again. Mostly.
