Synopsis

TRAPPED IN SPACE, AMI THOUGHT SHE WAS ALONE, UNTIL HER DISTRESS CALL WAS ANSWERED BY HIM. . .

Thrum is a haunting, psychological sci-fi novella that will leave you wanting more . . .

‘Fell in love with this novella, so capturing and so harrowing. It's everything I wanted in a horror-romance’ 5 ⭐ Reader Review

--
Ami awakes from years in stasis to find she’s at the edges of deep space, and the only surviving member of her crew.

Utterly alone and unable to contact Earth, she sends out a distress beacon, not expecting a response. When she gets one from a being who calls himself Dorian, she’s welcomed onto his ship as he offers his assistance in any way he can.

But nothing on Dorian’s ship is as it seems. And as Ami tries to navigate the maze of hallways and first contact with this alien being, a deep hum begins to resonate, haunting her, as if the ship itself is whispering to her.
