THE MARTAIN meets THE EXPANSE in this page turning debut science-fiction mystery

MARS, 2034
A place of hope, freedom, and the dream of a better future on their new home.

The year of the first human born on the red planet.

MARS, 2103
A place of division, suspicion and fear.

The year when the truth will come about.

****

This is the story of the first human being born on Mars: Rose Fuller, who saw a better future than the one that came to pass.

And Dylan Ward, a woman raised in the vast wilderness of the frontier, who will find her way back to it.

It's a story about a man who went missing, and the man who wants to find out what he knew.

It's a story about what makes us human - and how we might live once we leave our home.

The story of the first murder on Mars.

PRAISE FOR THE FIRST MURDER ON MARS:

'A fiercely intelligent, wholly engaging thrill-ride of a novel that sucks you in like a black hole' SARAH LOTZ, author of THE THREE

'Fast and sharp and very of-our-time' LAUREN BEUKES, author of THE SHINING GIRLS

'A wild rover ride across the red planet which is somehow both exhilarating and deeply thoughtful about how societies are built, captured and liberated. It's meticulously researched, vividly imagined and moves faster than a spaceship. I bloody adored this book' SAM BECKBESSINGER, co-author of GIRLS OF LITTLE HOPE

'Fuses inventive sci-fi, Martian secrets and the whodunnit into an ingenious, thought-provoking and heart-pounding page-turner' DALE HALVORSEN, coo-author of GIRLS OF LITTLE HOPE

'A generation-spanning epic, this is science fiction at its best. Wilson knows that human nature will follow us anywhere - even Mars' ALEX CONVERY, screenwriter of AIR 2023

'Impeccable storytelling. Undoubtedly a book which works both on the level of its intriguing high concept and sheer narrative nous.' BARRY FORSHAW, author of NORDIC NOIR
