Dead Silence by S.A. Barnes
4.0
It's what if the episode of season two of NBC's Stingray happened on the Titanic.
The standout aspect is the imagery. There's some great visuals in this, from both a horror and a science fiction perspective. It wins some sort of tell don't show Raspberry Award for the repeated rehashing of the protagonist's history, and the fact the romance plot vanishes at one point suggests its importance. But the hook is catchy and you can dance to it. The cliché is thick, the twists are predictable but competently executed, and the villain is admirably evil.
