GENRE: paranormal psychological thriller

BLURB:
It’s
been years since Amelie abandoned her home to become an elite agent of the
Academy.
In
its embrace she has found support and stability, but in return the Academy uses
her gifts for destruction and control. For ten years, she has chosen to live
only for the moment, neither questioning nor considering the motives of her
employer. But when Amelie and her pod of fellow agents, “graduate” into
becoming strategic operatives, they are spirited off to an isolated island.
Here they uncover a labyrinth of deception and lies far more sinister than any
they ever imagined, including Verite, a new virtual reality game, in which time
has no meaning and your blood holds the keys to your soul.
In
the Ghosting Academy, consciousness is currency, morality is shackles and there
is no death.

Excerpt
Three:
Widget picked up a needle and motioned to Amelie. She
grimaced and shook her head.
“I hate these things. Vaccinations are the worst,” she
muttered.
“No, death is the worst. This is just a little prick in your
arm,” Majo said.
“So can I assume you have already signed up for Evermore
then?” James asked with a smirk.
“What’s Evermore?” Amelie asked.
“Do you never read the news?” James said.
“Not unless it’s pertinent to my job. Why?”
“It’s been all over the news lately,” Majo replied. “There
is a company that claims to be able to move your consciousness from your body
and into a virtual world that they have created.”
“Created to your specifications,” James added, getting up as
Widget nodded to him.
“So they say that they can identify and isolate your actual
soul, and move it?” Amelie turned to face James, who was stoically getting his
vaccination.
“Oh, they don’t mention souls at all,” Majo said. “They only
discuss consciousness.”
“And they know it works?” Amelie asked.
“The gamers who did the beta testing all came back singing
its praises and wanting to go back in,” James replied. “Who knows, maybe the
human race has finally found a way to cheat death.”
