What follows is a sort of crime or political thriller in an alien society. There are a good number of twists and turns before it becomes evident what the plot will really be, which is why I'm not saying more about it. But apart from the twists and turns of many different schemes, what made this book for me was the look at a new society within a familiar universe, with its own family structures and its own understanding of gender, adulthood, and identity. None of these concepts are info-dumped at the reader but come through naturally as we meet more of Ingray's friends and family.
Overall: A-
