Deborah Raboinowitz is a literary broker. She travels to alien worlds via virtual reality and sells the publishing rights to Earth books on other planets. But when an alien is murdered right before her eyes, there's no way she can keep from being involved and solving the murder herself.
Then, when an old friend is accused of a murder on a different world, Deborah has to become a lawyer and defend her friend before a kangaroo court by solving that murder, too.
What I found in the sample:
The sample was definitely well-written and propelled me through it in no time, the sign of a well-written story. I really liked Deborah as a character; she had a distinct attitude that made me care about her, and I know that others will enjoy her character as well. I also loved the original idea for this story: I'd love to have my books published on other planets.
