To survive a world-ending terror only she can see, Maaya must leave her backwater town behind and trust a beautiful but mysterious pirate captain.
Maaya survives the dark streets of Sark with two things: a deck of hand-inscribed magic cards and the company of her snarky-and dead-best friend, Saber. She doesn't want glory; she just wants to keep her friends alive. But when a terrifying and invisible force begins erasing citizens from existence without a trace, her street-level mediumship becomes a desperate fight for survival.
Forced to flee the only home she's ever known even as she tries to save it from an enemy that cannot be killed, Maaya finds sanctuary on the Windfire, a swift pirate ship under the command of the infamous Adelaide Sol.
Adelaide is everything Maaya is not: energetic, charming, and headstrong almost to a fault. She captains her ship with a bright smile and an iron will, but Maaya soon discovers she also wields a terrifying secret power of her own, one that could put Maaya's presence on the ship in jeopardy.
As a century-old doomsday weapon ticks down across the sea, the friction between the guarded medium and the fearless privateer ignites into something undeniable. But saving the world will require Maaya to sacrifice even more than she feared... and to trust a woman who might just steal her heart before the world ends.
From a soot-stained backwater town to glittering cities across the open ocean, Ghost Walk is an atmospheric YA Gaslamp Fantasy featuring a tactile card-based magic system, spirit mediumship, high-seas pirate adventure, and a slow-burn sapphic romance.
