Solving a murder committed millions of miles from Earth has unique challenges...
Dr. Zenobia Batiste has a Ph.D. in forensic sociology and a master's degree in social work. Her specific field is human behavior and social structures in extraterrestrial colonies. A trained investigator, Dr. Zen is an agent with the Office of Special Investigations. NASA and the DOJ created the unit to conduct criminal investigations connected to and within the space program. The OSI is an agency so low-key most Americans don't know it exists. And the White House would like to keep it that way.
When a top scientist is found dead on the first space station to welcome tourists, Dr. Zen is headed for the stars. Once there, officials seem more intent on covering up problems than cooperating. Her new partner, only recently cleared of murder, has secrets that follow him. All of it crashes together to complicate Dr. Zen's case. But she's going to get to the truth; even if she has to turn Earth and space inside out.
The In Situ Murders is the second adventure in the Dr. Zen Mystery Series. Read The Lodestone Puzzle, Book 1.
