You canât trust your sensesâand you sure as hell canât trust the ship.
The P.U.V. James Keeling has two objectives: raid enemy supply lines, and capture live specimens of a flesh-eating, warmongering alien species. The first mission is suicidal. The second might be worse.
But thereâs a complication. The operation unfolds in the territory of a neutral powerâone whose ships escort the enemy, and whose laws forbid Keelingâs crew from firing back. A single stray artillery shell could spark a second war, one the Planetary Union will not survive.
Through it all, the crew must endure the living nightmare of serving on the Crypt. Every âdiveâ through transdimensional space peels back another layer of reality. Crewmembers whisper of things seen in the dark, things that shouldnât exist. Stress compounds. Sanity frays. A crew of rejects, thieves, murderers, and cowardsâthe âbest of the worstââface death at every turn.
When even your bunkmate might try to kill you, who can you trust?
Book two of The Crypt plunges into unknowable terror, where you canât trust your own sensesâand the ship itself may be the greatest threat of all.
