Blood Orbit: A Gattis File Novel by K. R. Richardson

The Greywalker series by Kat Richardson is one of my all-time favorite UF series. The last Greywalker novel, Revenant (GREYWALKER Book 9) released in 2014.
So I was happy to see a new series from Richardson. This one is a hard science fiction police procedural...not my normal read, but Richardson's writing is worth giving this a try!

Blood Orbit: A Gattis File Novel
by K. R. Richardson
May 8, 2018
495 pages
Publisher: Pyr
This science fiction police procedural pairs an idealistic rookie with an officer who uses cybernetic implants to process forensics; in solving a mass murder, they will uncover a vast conspiracy.

Eric Matheson, an idealistic rookie cop trying to break from his powerful family, is plunged into the investigation of a brutal crime in his first weeks on the job in Angra Dastrelas, the corrupt capital city of the corporate-owned planet Gattis. A newcomer to the planet, Matheson is unaware of the danger he's courting when he's promoted in the field to assist the controversial Chief Investigating Forensic Officer, Inspector J. P. Dillal, the planet's first cybernetically enhanced investigator. Coming from a despised ethnic underclass, the brilliant and secretive Dillal seems determined to unravel the crime regardless of the consequences. The deeper they dig, the more dangerous the investigation becomes. But in a system where the cops enforce corporate will, instead of the law, the solution could expose Gattis's most shocking secrets and cost thousands of lives--including Matheson's and Dillal's.
