What this book is about

Jazz Bashara lives in Artemis, the first and only city on the Moon, working as a porter while running small-scale smuggling to supplement her income. When a wealthy industrialist offers her a life-changing sum to sabotage a competitor's operation, Jazz agrees — finding herself in the middle of a conspiracy that threatens the entire moon city. Andy Weir's follow-up to The Martian is lighter in tone, with a witty first-person narrator and meticulously detailed moon-city world-building.
