Age YA
A well-constructed thriller tinged with horror and the supernatural from a talented author, set against the worlds of video games, art, and religion.

Three young women, strangers to one other, end up living together in Paris in tiny rundown rooms atop of a middle-class apartment building. There's Suzanne, a strong-willed streamer who’s been kicked out by her father; Saskia, an upcoming artist discouraged by a mean gallery owner; and Anne-Lise, who comes from an intensely religious family. Strange and eerie events bring them together: ghostly apparitions disturb Suzanne’s video games, a spirit enters Saskia’s room, and voices invade Anne-Lise’s brain. They realize they all have personal problems—family, artistic, and spiritual—but decide to confront these together. Are these seemingly supernatural phenomena real? Or have the girls gone mad?
