Jazz is a thief, a very good one. She smuggles things in that aren't allowed. She has to know every nook and cranny of the bubble towns that have been created on the moon to do it. She does. Her father wishes she didn't do what she does but she's trying to earn enough money to buy a suit to work outside. They're very expensive. When she's offered a large sum of money to stop the harvesters that bring in rock, she says no at first. But when she hears the money being offered, she changes her mind...
Crown Publishing and Net Galley let me read this book for review (thank you). It is being published today.
I read The Martian and this writer's words resonate with me. He talks about impossible things (at least so far) and he makes it very believable. His stories are full of suspense and huge challenges for the characters. No matter how many pages there are in the story, you won't skip a thing and you'll be unwilling to put it down and do something else. His stories are mesmerizing.
Jazz had enemies, friends, and some she's not sure of. When she goes to do her dirty deed, she makes a mistake and suddenly she's on the run. When she goes to visit the man that hired her, she finds him and his bodyguard dead. She runs down the other man she met while at his house and when she breaks in his room, she finds the killer instead. I told you, it's not boring.
This a conspiracy within a conspiracy and it takes a lot of questions and some brave action to try to save the world she lives in. At the end, she makes another mistake and almost kills everyone on the planet. Can she reverse this?
You'll keep reading until you know...
