Description

Anabelle Crisp is fourteen when the Silence arrives, severing all communication between Earth and her new home on Mars. After her family's diner is robbed, including the last recording of her mother's voice, Anabelle strikes out into the Martian desert to take her revenge. Exposed to the bizarre dangers of the planet, Anabelle learns Mars is a vast haunted house infested with ghosts of evil intent, and her home, once safe, is nothing more than a guttering candle in a dark world.
