The Mimicking of Known Successes by Malka Older

3.5

This novella is a Holmesian mystery set in a sci-fi world. Humanity has colonized Jupiter after Earth becomes uninhabitable. Now Mossa, an investigator, has to find a missing man, and her journey begins at a university with her ex-girlfriend, Pleiti. If you read this, expect fog, trains, academia, a love story, and some world building around how Jupiter has been colonized. It was really well written, but it got lower stars for me, because I found it kind of boring.
