Book description
When Pleiti's old friend begs for help-her cousin accused of plagiarism just before a crucial academic defense at a rival Jovian university-she agrees without hesitation. But this isn't just a case of academic sabotage. It's the first flicker of something far darker, and it forces Pleiti to investigate alone. Mossa isn't there. Not anymore. Her sudden withdrawal, the bewildering silence between them, hangs heavier than the ship's hum as Pleiti navigates the glittering, treacherous halls of academic politics.
The mystery deepens fast. What starts as a smear campaign twists into a threat that feels chillingly personal, a danger that could end lives. Older masterfully balances the intricate puzzle of the plagiarism accusation with the escalating peril beneath it. You'll find yourself leaning in, not just to solve the case, but to understand why Mossa pulled away, and whether the fragile trust between them can survive the shadows closing in.
And that's where the audiobook truly shines. The narrator's voice carries every nuance-the quiet desperation in Pleiti's voice as she tries to piece things together without Mossa, the subtle shift in tone when she recalls their shared moments, the palpable tension in a single, unspoken word. You hear the weight of Mossa's absence, the way Pleiti's usual confidence falters. It's not just a story you listen to; it's an experience you feel, the ship's engines a constant backdrop to the quiet ache of separation.
This is cozy space-opera mystery at its finest. The Jovian setting feels lived-in, the academic rivalries sharp and believable, and the central mystery grips you like a good puzzle. But it's the heart of it-the slow, aching pulse of Pleiti and Mossa's relationship, the way their connection lingers even in the silence-that elevates it. Library Journal nails it: it's a delight for sapphic romance readers, and for anyone who loves a mystery where the emotional stakes are as real as the plot. You won't just solve the case; you'll feel the quiet power of their bond, even when it's fractured, and wonder if it can hold when everything else is unraveling. This isn't just a great sci-fi mystery-it's a deeply human story, perfectly delivered through the intimate medium of the audiobook.
