(2026)(The first book in the Cosmic Casefiles series)
A novel by PJ Skinner
A gripping cozy sci-fi mystery brimming with wit, found family, and deep-space secrets.
A woman with an unwanted spaceship.
A crew with an unwanted captain.
A spa-liner with an unwanted body
Stella Maris thought inheriting a battered cargo ship would solve all her problems.Her plan was simple: sell the Albatross, clear her debts, and start over. Unfortunately, the ship came with an eccentric crew: loyal, stubborn, six months unpaid, and determined not to lose the only home they have left.
One delivery run to the luxury spa-liner Galaxy Belle should fix everything. Complete the job. Pay the crew. Walk away.
But the plan derails when a wealthy passenger is found murdered in her cabin, and Stella's charming, infuriating pilot, Kit Devereux, becomes the prime suspect.
To clear her pilot's name, Stella is forced to do the last thing she ever planned: team up with her crew and unleash their hidden talents for investigation to solve the murder before the local planetary authorities lock Kit away.
The Galaxy Belle isn’t the only ship hiding secrets. The misfit crew of the Albatross that Stella planned to abandon might just become the family she needs. And somewhere out in the black, the sister she thought she’d lost forever might still be waiting to be found…
A cozy sci-fi mystery featuring snappy banter, a slow-burn "will-they-won't-they" romance, and a battered spaceship that just might become home. Perfect for fans of Becky Chambers and classic 80s romantic detective dynamic!
