Publisher Description

One dead body. One missing friend. One deadly game she never agreed to play.

Thea Riggs was supposed to have two months of freedom before college, partying with her friends, and relaxing before she had to leave it all behind. But when her best friend summons her in the middle of the night and then vanishes without a trace, Thea walks straight into a nightmare.

Her friend's mother is dead, and Thea is the one who finds the body.  In a split-second decision, Thea snaps a picture of the dead body and the game begins.

Without intending to be, Thea is now a player in the Dead Sevens Club, an underground viral challenge that doesn't just exist online—it follows you into real life. The rules? No one knows. The players? Invisible. The stakes? Life or death. Someone wanted Thea in this game. Someone set her up. Someone is watching her every move.

To escape, Thea has to do more than solve a murder. She has to uncover the truth—about the game, about the people behind it, about why she was chosen. And to do that, she must risk everything.

This game isn't just about winning. It's about survival.

Because in Dead Sevens Club, the only way out is to play.

Specimen is a high-stakes thriller packed with shocking twists and dark secrets. Are you brave enough to play the game with Thea?
