Far from the Light of Heaven by Tade Thompson

DID NOT FINISH: 47%

This story has potential to be interesting; I would love a well-written murder mystery space opera. But, this story lacks. The characters don't make any sense. For example, Fin seems to regard Joke with disgust or disdain, but then they are having sex in a warehouse? Joke is written as this "otherworldly" type who you find out is the product of a sex fling between a man and a cosmic being? The story itself feels incomplete in that it jumps sporadically and appears lost in its own narrative.
