The Luminous Dead - Caitlin Starling

Bram Stoker Award nominee for Best First Novel, this gripping sci-fi horror debut blends the survival intensity of The Martian with the psychological dread of Annihilation.

When Gyre Price fakes her way onto a caving expedition on a distant planet, she expects danger—but not from her only contact, Em, a manipulative handler who controls her with drugs and secrets. As Gyre descends deeper underground, strange inconsistencies and Em’s shifting motives unravel her grip on reality.

Alone in the dark, stalked by something unknown, Gyre must survive not only the treacherous terrain but her own unraveling mind.
