About this listen

If someone dies in space, and no one's awake to hear it... Crewman Doyle, Night Custodian on the Interstellar Settlement Ship Lincoln has a routine job: -Wake up at shift change, -Check the ship’s systems, -Don’t slip into night-drift psychosis—which they say can happen to anyone, especially the only person awake in deep-space for several hours every night. But even a litany of coping strategies and a soothing song on loop can’t help when Doyle discovers the body of a murdered crewman. That’s not part of the Night Custodian’s handbook, but safely rousing more senior crew takes far too long for comfort, and letting a murderer roam free could be deadly for everyone. On a race to follow signs of foul play and prevent mission sabotage, Doyle quickly learns that some things are far more frightening than being alone in the corridors of a giant starship.
