Three Days of Night

Farina has never wanted anything more than to get an education on Earth. She was supposed to go, but a group of religious outsiders took power just before it was her turn to leave the colony. Her best friend, Ezra, got to go but she was forced to stay behind.

In the five years since she missed her chance, things have only gotten worse. The restrictions on girls have gotten tighter, and that was before women started disappearing at night. Farina's own mother was among the first to vanish.

But now the transport is coming back, bringing with it old friends. She should know better than to go out after dark, but this might be her only chance. Can Farina make it on board before it leaves again, or will she find out, first-hand, what happened the night her mother disappeared?

Three Days of Night is a novella of approximately 21,000 words. It is the first in a trilogy of novellas.
