A murder investigation at an interstellar beauty pageant draws two detectives into a deadly mystery.
Detectives Rappeneau and Thorpe-Campbell are from different worlds. One’s a debonair number-cruncher with a posh accent, the other’s a hard-edged burn-out a hair’s breadth away from suspension. They’d settle for a week of eye candy and full body massages. But there’s been a vicious murder at the famous lunar resort of Pont de Rêves. And with a half-billion-credit purse up for grabs, this year’s pageant is the focus of a hundred worlds.
One contestant, Evelyn Lyons, has been attacked and her assailant killed. Surely a simple case of a stalker gone mad. But the closer Rappeneau gets to her, the more convinced he is that she’s hiding something. His meticulous character sparks with her wild, sassy nature, and the heat is on.
But their forbidden romance isn’t the only thing set to ignite in Pont de Rêves. Sebastian’s infatuation with demure Claire Williams, a mysterious beauty with a dark secret of her own, threatens to put all four of them in harm’s way.
A deadly trail of interstellar conspiracy, monstrous assassins and hot bikini wax is more than anyone bargained for in this incendiary action mystery. Get ready for some serious heat on the dark side of the moon.
