THE CASE FILE

A deep-space expedition is offering a fortune. However, one woman soon realizes this journey might not be worth the price.

Alone, she must rely on a colleague whose motives are mysterious at best. When supplies start disappearing and her body begins to feel strangely unfamiliar, she starts to suspect she's being drugged.

Her colleague isn't the only one she should be afraid of. The deeper she goes, the harder it becomes to trust anyone, especially herself.

And something might be following her.

THE SPECIMEN

Each mystery book arrives wrapped in craft paper, secured with a ribbon, and accompanied by its very own identifying toe tag.

Your specimen includes:

• One mystery horror book, wrapped and ready to be ripped apart

• One set of annotation tabs to mark all the moments worth screaming about

• One MUJI 0.5mm Knock Type Gel Pen

• One complimentary sticker (not including the cute ghost keeping it together)

• One Thin Veil Bookstore branded book review bookmark

CAUSE OF DEATH: UNKNOWN

Every specimen is released at a discounted price, just waiting to be claimed.

The paperwork is complete. The specimen is identified (well, almost). All that's left is for you to claim your new horror obsession and uncover what lies beneath the wrapping.

All specimens are released into the care of their new owners at their own risk.

CASE STATUS: AWAITING COLLECTION.
