Jazz Bashara is a porter on the moon. She also has a pretty robust smuggling business that supplements her meager income. A resident of the moon city Artemis since age six, she has very little memory of her life on earth. Her father is a respected welder and sometimes critic of Jazz's rebellious life and attitude. When Jazz gets mixed up in a plan to force the sale of a aluminum mining operation, things go south and her big payday ends with a murder. Jazz is now on the run and trying to figure out how to make things right. With a stable of interesting friends and a deep understanding of the things that make living on the moon a bit different, this modern day heroine is fun to get to know. Laced with physics lessons and engineering details, fans of Weir's earlier book will find this similarly engaging.
