About this listen

Amateur detective Mallory Viridian’s talent for solving murders ruined her life on Earth and drove her to live on an alien space station, but her problems still follow her in this witty, self-aware novel that puts a speculative spin on murder mysteries, from the Hugo-nominated author of Six Wakes.

From idyllic small towns to claustrophobic urban landscapes, Mallory Viridian is constantly embroiled in murder cases that only she has the insight to solve. But outside of a classic mystery novel, being surrounded by death doesn’t make you a charming amateur detective, it makes you a suspect and a social pariah. So when Mallory gets the opportunity to take refuge on a sentient space station, she thinks she has the solution. Surely the murders will stop if her only company is alien beings. At first her new existence is peacefully quiet…and markedly devoid of homicide.

But when the station agrees to allow additional human guests, Mallory knows the break from her peculiar reality is over. After the first Earth shuttle arrives, and aliens and humans alike begin to die, the station is thrown into peril. Stuck smack-dab in the middle of an extraterrestrial whodunit, and wondering how in the world this keeps happening to her anyway, Mallory has to solve the crime—and fast—or the list of victims could grow to include everyone on board….

Most engaging, wildly inventive, clever too. And there's aliens, lots and lots of aliens. Tension, humour and charm. Brilliantly narrated by Sarah Mollo-Christense. Definitely a "Couldn't put it down", "can't wait for sequel" book.

A real "Couldn't put it down" 'er.

Love the story! Murder, aliens, family, strange humans, sentient ships and stations. The narration took a bit of getting used to but eventually grew on me.

A different kind of sci fi

Fun and exciting sci-fi with really good narration. Hoping the series continues at the same level.

Thoroughly enjoyable
