Books On Our Radar: Dead Silence by S.A. Barnes

Dead Silence by S.A. Barnes is a sci-fi horror set in space and really that’s all I need to know to pick this one up – but we will tell you more! Team BookCrushin has never met a Stacey Kade/S.A. Barnes book they didn’t love and to have Stacey entering the horror genre is a DREAM COME TRUE (seriously, she has paranormal, SF, and contemporary YA and NA/adult romance that are all MUST READS). Waiting until January 2022 might be the actual real horror you’ll experience………

Titanic meets The Shining in S.A. Barnes’ Dead Silence, a SF horror novel in which a woman and her crew board a decades-lost luxury cruiser and find the wreckage of a nightmare that hasn't yet ended.

A GHOST SHIP.
A SALVAGE CREW.
UNSPEAKABLE HORRORS.

Claire Kovalik is days away from being unemployed—made obsolete—when her beacon repair crew picks up a strange distress signal. With nothing to lose and no desire to return to Earth, Claire and her team decide to investigate.

What they find at the other end of the signal is a shock: the Aurora, a famous luxury space-liner that vanished on its maiden tour of the solar system more than twenty years ago. A salvage claim like this could set Claire and her crew up for life. But a quick trip through the Aurora reveals something isn’t right.

Whispers in the dark. Flickers of movement. Words scrawled in blood. Claire must fight to hold onto her sanity and find out what really happened on the Aurora, before she and her crew meet the same ghastly fate.
