Grieving and broken, Abaddon Ordell is sentenced to the brutal Dream Stone prison for the crime of miscarrying her child. Amid violence and despair, she discovers unexpected allies—and a purpose worth surviving for, if she can learn to trust again.

What if the laws of nature resulted in imprisonment at the hands of political tyrants? In Shadows in Dream Stone, the first book of this dystopian sci-fi trilogy, Dark Stars, Abaddon Ordell is a teacher, sister, and wife turned prisoner. In the wake of a devastating miscarriage, Abaddon is cruelly handed over to the law by her husband and condemned to the infamous Dream Stone prison. 

Hemmed in by aggressive inmates, guards steeped in misogyny, and a Warden whose sympathy is nothing but a sham, she grapples with her consuming grief and a deep rage over the oppressive forces that govern her reproductive rights. She isn’t sure she will survive, or if she even wants to.

Just when all seems lost, an unexpected ally offers her the strength and love she needs to endure this darkness, if only she has the courage to trust her.

As the dangers of Dream Stone escalate, Abaddon turns her suffering into strength to plot a revolutionary scheme that targets the heart of the oppressive regime. She just has to make it out of prison alive first.

Abaddon’s tale of survival serves as a testament to the indomitable spirit of those who fight against the chains of injustice, and a reminder of the thin line between order and oppression.
