I’ve always wondered about those amateur detectives who just happen to be nearby when murder occurs, especially the sixth or seventh time.

It’s the latter for Mallory Viridian, so when the possibility arises she flees Earth to a space station inhabited only by aliens to escape.

I also really loved how this book delves into the question of why murder seems to follow Mallory…
