Dead Silence by S.A. Barnes

Imagine you are in space in charge of a small crew about to be laid off when you discover a huge luxury space liner that has been lost for years.  Suddenly, you are a treasure hunter looking at one heck of a cushy retirement.  Things are looking up until you go aboard.  Titanic meets The Haunting of Hill House meets one really bad hallucinogenic trip.  Claire barely escapes only to find herself suspected of killing her entire crew.  To prove that she is not a killer (she hopes), that the ghosts on  board the ship are real and that there might still be survivors she goes back to the carnage.  Top marks to this sci-fi horror tale that keeps you guessing and questioning Claire's sanity right up to the last page.  Is she a killer? Is she hallucinating?  What really happened on board The Aurora? Can she make back out of there alive a second time?  Fans of classic haunted house stories as well as sci-fi space drama will find much to love here!
