《絕地救援/火星任務》暢銷小說家安迪.威爾(Andy Weir)最新力作,一個看似完美的犯罪計畫,背後卻有著複雜百倍的致命陰謀……。
26歲的巴莎拉是一名罪犯。
好吧,應該說算是個罪犯。畢竟如果你不是個有錢的旅行者或是億萬富翁的話,在Artemis這個月球上第一個也是唯一一個城市生活,實在很辛苦。尤其當你負債累累,工作收入連房租都付不起的時候,偶而走私一點無關緊要的違禁品,算不上犯罪吧?
但某次,當巴莎拉擁有一次完美的犯罪機會時,一切都改變了。她很快意識到,這個能讓她夢想成真的犯罪計畫,比自己想像中還要複雜百倍,她已被捲入一樁致命的陰謀當中,而現在,她唯一的生存機會,就在一個比所有犯罪都還要危險的遊戲當中……。(文/博客來編譯)
The bestselling author of The Martian returns with an irresistible new near-future thriller—a heist story set on the moon.
Jazz Bashara is a criminal.
Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you’re not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent.
Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down. But pulling off the impossible is just the start of her problems, as she learns that she's stepped square into a conspiracy for control of Artemis itself—and that now, her only chance at survival lies in a gambit even riskier than the first.
