Earth is gone.
Ten survivors escape aboard Asterion, a vessel designed to do one thing: keep them alive and intact. Every system is functioning. Every parameter is within range.
Then the ship begins to change.
Course corrections happen without command. Lights dim before anyone asks. The air shifts in rooms where someone has just sat down to breathe. The crew cannot agree on what is happening, whether Asterion is malfunctioning, adapting, or something stranger that neither word can hold.
As pressure builds, the crew fracture along familiar lines. The one who carries everything. The one who watches for danger. The one who tries to control what cannot be controlled. The child no one was meant to notice. Old patterns return with new urgency, and the question is no longer whether the ship is stable.
It is whether the people aboard can survive what Asterion has already begun to understand about them.
Fragments of Asterion is a psychological novel wrapped in speculative fiction, about trauma, responsive systems, emotional survival, and the fragile process of learning how to remain connected without breaking apart.
For readers drawn to:
Julie-Anne L. Peake is an Australian clinical psychologist with over twenty years of experience treating trauma-related conditions, drawing on evidence-based treatments such as EMDR alongside parts-based therapeutic approaches. Her clinical work and her fiction both explore how people remain connected, to themselves and to one another, under sustained psychological pressure. Fragments of Asterion is her debut novel and the first in a planned series, with a companion volume for therapists forthcoming.
