Mur Lafferty’s 2017 Six Wakes is a standalone science fiction mystery novel.
To have one crew-member murdered may be regarded as a misfortune; to have the entire crew murdered looks like carelessness.
Happily for Maria Arena and the rest of the crew of the interstellar ship Dormire, death is a temporary condition. Maria wakes in a cloning pod, as expected. What is not expected: she is still in the pod. Someone should have released her. Oh, and she can see globules of blood floating in freefall outside her container.
It only gets worse.
