Welcome to Phantasma.

There are only two rules to the game. Stay alive. And don’t fall in love.

When Ophelia’s sister disappears, there is only one way to save her. Ophelia must enter Phantasma, a deadly contest inside a haunted mansion, and claim its prize—a single wish. Phantasma is a maze of twisting corridors and lavish ballrooms, of demons and temptations. Ophelia will face nine challenges, each more dangerous than the last. There can only be one winner, and the other contestants will stop at nothing to eliminate their rivals.

Every day the house creates new monsters. But just as Ophelia’s fears threaten to overwhelm her, a mysterious stranger offers her a bargain. Charming, arrogant and infuriatingly attractive, Blackwell claims he can guide her through the lethal trials ahead. All he asks in return is ten years of her life.

Ophelia knows she shouldn’t trust him. Blackwell doesn’t seem dangerous, but appearances can be deceptive. Worse still, she feels a dark and irresistible attraction drawing them closer and closer. Her life is on the line.

But in Phantasma, the only thing deadlier than losing the game is losing your heart…

Enter Phantasma, where survival and heartache dance in a deadly game. Kaylie Smith’s latest novel will draw you into a labyrinthine arena of peril and temptation, a realm of shifting dangers and dark allure, that promises only one victor and one hell of a game.

Ophelia’s mother has died, her sister has disappeared, and her world has turned on its head. To rescue her vanished sister, Ophelia must enter Phantasma and navigate nine treacherous—and increasingly deadly—challenges. The mansion conjures nightmares and adversaries daily, pushing her to the brink and reminding her that she is all alone.

Except, she is not. Blackwell—charismatic, enigmatic, and non-corporeal—makes Ophelia a deal: guidance in exchange for ten years of her life. Blackwell and his offer are both a lifeline and a potential trap, and as Ophelia moves through the game, their relationship takes on a life of its own. The one thing Ophelia knows for certain: she must tread carefully, for in Phantasma, love can be as deadly as the game itself.

Haunting, thrilling, and seductive, Phantasma will envelop you in a gothic atmosphere where every corridor conceals danger, and love could result in death.
