Critics

Audience

Two hundred years in the future, a missing young woman’s case brings a hardened detective and a rogue ship captain together. As they race across the solar system, their investigation leads toward a vast conspiracy amid growing tensions between Earth, Mars, and the Belt.

My take

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want serious, politically charged science fiction with mystery, tension, and realistic space travel, especially if you liked Battlestar Galactica; Not for you if you need fast, simple storytelling.
