About this Item

Octavo, gray boards (hardcover), 326 pp. Fine in a Fine dust jacket. From dust jacket: All that is left of humanity is on a thousand-year journey to a new planet aboard one ship, the Noah, which is also carrying a dangerous serial killer. As a city planner on the Noah, Hana Dempsey is a gifted psychic, economist, hacker, and bureaucrat, and is considered "mission critical." She is nonreplaceable, important, essential, but after serving her mandatory Breeding Duty, the impregnation and birthing that all women are obligated to undergo, her life loses purpose as she privately mourns the child she will never be permitted to know. When policeman Leonard Barrens enlists her and her hacking skills in the unofficial investigation of his mentor's death, Dempsey finds herself increasingly captivated by both the case and barrens himself. According to Information Security, the missing man has simply "retired" -- nothing unusual is cited, such as the mutilated remains Barrens found in the old man's apartment. Unraveling this cover-up reveals a growing list of mutilated victims and suspicious deaths -- evidence to suggest a serial killer is operating onboard the ship. As Barrens and Dempsey delve through the lost dataspaces and plunge deep into the uninhabited regions of the ship, they discover that the answer could be far worse. What they do with that answer will determine the fate of all humanity in this thrilling page-turner. Literature, Distopian, Fiction, Science Fiction bslic.
