Gladwin

The Finalist

This audition is worth killing for—and Eden is willing to die for it. 

If Eden wants the ballet solo of a lifetime, she just has to survive the freak accidents that keep killing the other ballerinas, an ill-fated, illicit attraction to her idol—legendary ex-ballerina Leanora Karagianni, and the chronic illness turning Eden’s body against her.

Oh, and the dormant haunted house someone brought back to life.

Coming Fall 2026
