A Game of Chez (Paperback or Softback)

Death hangs over her head, but she refuses to die.

In a city riddled with a fatal sickness, a young woman walks through the bleached walls of a hospital, her sense of self melting away from the feverish thumping in her head. Others die endlessly around her, but something seems to be keeping her alive, trapped in a never-ending cycle of illness.

In a sea of masked faces, the mysterious doctor with dark rimmed eyes and a wicked smile is the only constant. When he offers her his hand she takes it, not just to survive, but to live. Her reality twists as an inky black parasite drips from the walls and she becomes trapped in a dark forest vastly different from the white walls and tiles.

Danger lurks both within her mind and outside of it. The parasite that brought her to the forest plagues the frightening monsters within the dream world, and an emerald-eyed creature of the woods stalks her wherever she goes. To kill the parasite, to take back her own body and mind and wake up before it's too late; she might just have to become a monster too.

Sara has a Bachelor of Science in Nutrition and Nutraceuticals from the University of Guelph and a Diploma in Business Administration from McMaster University, which she misapplied to break into the quiet world under the floorboards as a personal assistant for horror influencers, writers and narrators. Under a pen name, she began writing short horror stories herself for fun.As horror and sex go hand in hand, she used her eclectic history and unflappable nature to break into other administrative work behind the scenes of adult film stars and online influencers. Currently, Sara is working as an associate producer at a video game studio, but her love of writing never left her, so she decided to publish her first novel, A Game of Chez.
