The Dead Man's Gravity Garden

About this book

On the small asteroid town of Bellwether, former contraband broker Pru Ceredo has built a respectable life repairing household machines and serving medicinal tea beneath the town's treasured gravity garden. When the garden's quiet founder is found dead during a meteor-shower supper, Pru recognizes details the official inquiry misses—and details uncomfortably close to the smuggling life she abandoned. Partnering uneasily with meticulous civic investigator Tomas Varek, she follows a trail through water allotments, antique navigation puzzles, and the town's carefully tended secrets. As Bellwether prepares for a powerful mining consortium's arrival, Pru must decide whether justice can be clean when every useful clue comes from the dishonest person she used to be.
