First sentence:
"A sentient space station should have perfect temperature, Mallory Viridian thought."
Description:
"Mallory Viridian would rather not be an amateur detective, thank you very much. But no matter what she does, people persist in dying around her--and only she seems to be able to solve the crime.
Now the law enforcement agent who hounded Mallory on Earth has come to Station Eternity, along with her teenage crush and Mallory's best friend from high school. Mallory doesn't believe in coincidences, and so she's not at all surprised when someone in the latest shuttle from Earth is murdered.
Only this time she has more than a killer to deal with. Between her fugitive friends, a new threat arising from the Sundry, and the alarming behavior of the sentient space station they all call home, even Mallory's deductive abilities are strained. If she can't find out what's going on, a disaster of intergalactic proportions may occur. . .." -- from the back cover
My thoughts:
I enjoyed this second book in The Midsolar Murders series. I especially liked how Mallory had to convince the sentient ship Eternity that something was wrong and how the rambunctious Gneiss, Tina, played a very big part. I look forward to reading the next book in the series, Infinite Archive.
