About this listen
Hugo, Locus, and Nebula Award winner Mary Robinette Kowal blends her no-nonsense approach to life in space with her talent for creating glittering high-society in this stylish SF mystery, The Spare Man.
Tesla Crane, one of the richest women in the world, is on her honeymoon on an interplanetary space liner, cruising between Earth and Mars. She’s traveling incognito and is reveling in her anonymity. Then someone is murdered and her husband is named as the prime suspect. To save him from the frame-up, Tesla will risk exposure and face demons from her past.
Even though doing so might make her the next victim.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Kowal serves up another delicious creation
Sublime characters, intelligent plot, compelling setting and multiple murders to solve. Kowal delivers another tour de force of hard sci-fi - the coriolis effect on a space cruiser - multilayered characters who are as flawed as they are fierce, and brings it all together with her immersive vocal characterisations.
Oh, and I am keeping the British insults for re-use!

Utter treat with a dog named Gimlet
A frothy space ship cruise romp that will brighten your day, plus cocktail recipes! This Nick and Nora style adventure will fill the space Thin Man hole in your life you didn't know you had. Plus, along with everyone else who reads it, you'll fall in love with the Gimlet the Westie service dog. I hope a sequel is hot on its heels, as I'd love to live in this universe more.

Wonderful story
Dragging the hard boiled detective pulp into the space age, this is the perfect blend of high tension drama, droll one liners, an irrepressible central character, a gorgeous dog, and a murder mystery which will leave you guessing to the end. Excellent voice performance by the author. Recommended.
