Liquid crystal nightingale

A bold and clever political thriller science fiction debut

Pleo Tanza is an outcast, even among the struggling masses on Chatoyance, the once-great space colony she calls home.

When Pleo is unjustly accused of murdering the only daughter of a powerful industrial family, she's thrown into a desperate race to clear her name.

After decades of intrigues and treachery, and facing a resurgent threat from a shadowy alien enemy, Chatoyance is ready to explode - and this could be the spark that triggers it.
