Six Wakes is a good old-fashioned murder mystery in space that starts with everyone on the ship being murdered. Everyone’s backup clones then wake up to the bloody massacre and have to figure out who killed everybody and why. Any one of them could be the killer, and not even know it. As the clones appear to work together to piece together clues, secrets and ulterior motives slowly come to light.

Author Mur Lafferty has an easy writing style, engaging characters, and I’ve put her other books on my wish list.

Recommendation: Read it. It’s a fun science fiction murder mystery.
