A WOMAN ON THE RUN. A CAPTAIN ADRIFT IN SPACE. ONE OF THEM IS INFECTED WITH AN ALIEN PARASITE. In this dark science fiction thriller, a young woman must confront her past so the human race will have a future. Rosalyn Devar is on the run from her famous family, the bioengineering job she's come to hate, and her messed-up life. She's run all the way to outer space, where she's taken a position as a "space janitor," cleaning up ill-fated research expeditions. But no matter how far she goes, Rosalyn can't escape herself. After too many mistakes on the job, she's given one last chance: take care of salvaging the Brigantine, a research vessel that has gone dark, with all crew aboard thought dead. But the Brigantine's crew are very much alive--if not entirely human. Now Rosalyn is trapped on board, alone with a crew infected by a mysterious parasitic alien. The captain, Edison Aries, seems to still maintain some control over himself and the crew, but he won't be able to keep fighting much longer. Rosalyn and Edison must find a way to stop the parasite's onslaught...or it may take over the entire human race.

This book had a solid plot, and some great characters, but for some reason it felt really slow. We seem to take a few breaks and tangents from the main plot, such as flashback of the main characters, and on the one hand it feels well woven into the main story but for some reason it detracted from the overall book for me. #screamathon

Severe thunder storms, no internet, perfect evening for #bookbubblesandbooze

bookwrm526 Stay safe, this system looks nasty!! 5y
Bookzombie I‘m so curious about that cocktail. Stay safe! 5y
WhatWouldJaneDo @Bookzombie it's basically a vodka cranberry, I think they're pretty good! They have other flavors as well but this is the only one I've tried so far. 5y
WhatWouldJaneDo @bookwrm526 thanks! I think the worst of it is missing us this time, fortunately. 5y

Really didn‘t like this book, as much as I was interested in its hook. It failed in creating any real horror, even though it had a great premise.

Rosalyn is running from her past & is a scavenger (space janitor) that cleans up after research expeditions in space. After many mistakes on the job, she is given one last chance to prove herself - salvaging a research vessel that has gone dark & the crew dead. But Rosalyn is surprised when she finds the crew not dead but alive. Now she‘s trapped with parasitic alien infected humans.

I rather enjoyed this sci-fi, horror, space themed book!

Mandoul I like the sound of that @TheLibrarian thanks for the review! 5y

My September reading stack, did pretty good. Still not everything I wanted to get to, but I got reading done and that‘s the important part 😊 #Salvaged was a fun, intriguing read. Loved the #TheGoodLuckGirls. #MagicForLiars was a great audible listen, the narrator was phenomenal. #ADreamSoDark was a fantastic continuation of A Blade so Black. Most of my reading this month was thanks to #Netgalley.

Schnoebs How did you like the good luck girls??? 5y
IhoardBOOKS @Schnoebs I really liked it, felt like it moved kinda slow but I didn't care because I was so into it. 5y

Rosalyn works as a salvager, a space janitor cleaning up ships that have run into problems. She's taken the job as an escape from several bad situations. The Brigantine reports life signs when the salvage crew arrives. A horrifying fate has taken the crew and, if it escapes, the whole of humankind. A well-paced horror adventure story in space.

[I received an advanced e-galley through Netgalley. The book is due to be published August 15, 2019.]
