When a former classmate begs Pleiti for help on behalf of her cousin—who’s up for a prestigious academic position at a rival Jovian university but has been accused of plagiarism on the eve of her defense—Pleiti agrees to investigate the matter.

Even if she has to do it without Mossa, her partner in more ways than one. Even if she’s still reeling from Mossa’s sudden isolation and bewildering rejection.

Yet what appears to be a case of an attempted reputational smearing devolves into something decidedly more dangerous—and possibly deadly.

Nice

It seems to me that the books in this series should be read more closely together than they are published. This one featured the effects of what happened in the first one as an important aspect of the story but I didn't remember the details very well. I liked how Mossa's and Pleiti's relationship has grown over the course of the books. We also get to explore another platform and its quirks more closely. The plot is also linked to the way people are living on Giant, like the first two, and I really like that about the series.
