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.

But I remembered something. I already had metal as sharp as the teeth puncturing into the top of my head. If I could just get to it. The tall man's teeth penetrated scales and flesh and drew blood that snaked between my strands of Saelis hair. 


The torture burned tears from my eyes. The realization that I knew how to stop it and couldn't even move my hands scorched me to my soul. 


He slurped and savored the taste as his teeth sank in deeper. 


I can stop this. I can. You do not own me. None of you do. 


The chandelier flickered above, or maybe that was my fading consciousness. 


I could hold on though. For Mase and Ellison. A burst of desperation charged through my veins. Give me myself back! 


As if released from a spring trap, my hands flew to my necklace. I plucked the ice pick free and stuck the handle part into my mouth, biting down. 


The tall man jerked back with a bellow, a bleeding shadow. My blood. My tainted blood that drew too much attention.
