WILL YOU MAKE THE
PERFECT SACRIFICE?

Book cover titled 'There Are No Stars Here' by J.S. Thompson, depicting a city skyline under a large, dark dome with a glowing teal tint, and the phrase 'Will you make the perfect sacrifice?' at the top.

The Earth has turned against us. The solution is Worthington’s Domes, sealed cities designed to preserve life and give the planet time to heal. Inside Shamut, safety is promised to those willing to abandon the past and forget the stars.

Solanis Tailor entered Shamut after a devastating storm tore her world apart, leaving behind the man she loved and the life she knew. Years later, with a daughter to protect and a position of influence within reach, Solanis has convinced herself the trade was worth it. Safety might be enough.

But when a voice from her past resurfaces, the cracks in her carefully built life begin to spread. As control slips and secrets rise to the surface, Solanis must confront what she gave up, what she still has to lose, and what it will cost to protect her daughter and their future.
