It's time for LINA to be decommissioned but when the crew picks up a distress signal from a long-lost spaceship, the crew is in for a very long ride. 

This is a space horror story. I liked the characters in this book a lot. They really seemed to shine and were pretty complex. The world-building was a little bit lacking, but this book was mostly focused on the characters. The only thing that I really didn't like about this book is how it was sectioned. This book switches between past and present for about fifty percent of the book while the rest of the book is in the present. It just felt really weird to stop going back into the past especially when that plot line was unfinished. 

Overall, an extremely creepy read. Definitely, recommend for spooky season.
