Dead Shock

"A truly terrifying novel set in space." —Amazon Review

"I couldn't put it down, had to keep reading. I'm a big Stephen King fan, and although no one can come close, I got a similar satisfaction from this book." —Amazon Review of The Playroom

They're stranded. They're scared. But they're not alone. Something is waiting for them in the ship's darkness.

Guerra isn't prepared for this.

He's a diplomat for an intergalactic peace-keeping outfit, on an expedition to answer a distress call regarding the humanitarian violations aboard a rogue ship. As rumor would have it, the nation's murderous dictator has been torturing and killing civilians, leading to instability among the beleaguered people of The ARK.

That said, despite the unsettling details about ethnic cleansing, it's a pretty standard mission. That is, until he and his crew arrive and find that the ship is completely and totally...empty.

There is no executive liaison. No security.

In short, there is nothing .

It's like they've wandered into a haunted house, floating alone in the far reaches of space. Every step echoes with a kind of stomach-churning isolation. Every word seems to be met by disembodied whispers in the darkness.

The question plaguing Guerra and his crew is— where did everybody go ?

Armed only with riot gear and some ineffective weaponry, they explore the carcass of the ship, discovering pretty quickly that their claustrophobic surroundings might be giving asylum to a menacing, gargantuan adversary.

And it sounds hungry .

Compulsively readable and difficult to put down, Dead Shock is an immersive, atmospheric space horror novel from the author of 'The Playroom' and 'Party Snatchers.'

Fans of scary sci fi books will love this claustrophobic, terrifying horror book set in space. Dead Shock has an abundance of mystery, terror, and pulse-pounding action. If you enjoyed S.A. Barnes's Dead Silence , Caitlin Starling's The Luminous Dead , and Iain Rob Wright's 2389 , you will love this creepy and satisfying page-turner.
