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.

Fantastic!

I loved this book on so many levels. For anyone who is a fan of the Thin Man Series of movies from the 1930's-1940's AND who loves science fiction AND smart, interesting women characters AND who loves representation of the diversity of peoples AND a wonderful performance, I think this will be the treat you were looking for. I will listen to this book again - soon!

Terribly Enjoyable

A glamorous, retro futuristic space cruise ship and a twisty, surprising murder mystery, and an adorable westie? A great listen!
