4.0

Murder mystery in a 1920s esk interplanetary spaceship. Very Noir (ish) but the hero is the dame with the hard boiled detective. 

As always, the writing is fantastic and the story enthralling. Negative, Tesla’s superpower is brandishing wealth like a sledge hammer and Wisor is right about her.
