An intergalactic luxury cruise to a distant port is a world unto itself in this piercing short mystery by #1 New York Times bestselling author Veronica Roth. Traveling faster than light, the transport ship Redundancy is cut off from communication as effectively as an ancient ocean liner. The isolation suits crew member Ace Vance just fine—she’s got nowhere else to be. But when a wealthy passenger turns up dead during a routine voyage, Ace will have to connect with the passengers and crew to uncover the truth. Tragedy will strike again—it’s only a matter of time. Veronica Roth’s Void is part of The Far Reaches , a collection of science-fiction stories that stretch the imagination and open the heart. They can be read or listened to in one sitting.

Good start, but the mystery felt weak when ultimately revealed.
A quick space mystery with a tight provoking point. I love stories that make me think. I wish this were a bit longer. That said, Roth leaves me to plumb the depths of the point.
Outside of the setting, this is simply a short murder mystery. I do feel that the author successfully baits the reader into thinking there is going to be something different going on due to the SF setting, but it ends up being pretty traditional. Fairly nice twist, though, so 4/5 for me.
