A very interesting hard sci-fi book from an author who has never written sci-fi before. Had some great concepts and the idea of a murder mystery in space is veeeeery cool! But not incredibly well written. Characters were underdeveloped and parts of the book I had to force myself through. Still worth a read for sci-fi lovers though.
