Murder in Space

by David Vern Reed

Armchair fiction presents extra large paperback editions of the best in classic science fiction novels. “Murder in Space,” written by David V. Reed, is a great mystery set in deep space. There was a place in the asteroid belt called the Hive. It was a deadly whirl of destruction filled with thousands of spiraling asteroids—where no spaceship could enter and return in one piece. And deep within it lurked an unsolved murder. Terwilliger Ames was the best attorney this side of Earth; but when he was swayed by the charms of a beautiful young woman into accepting a murder case, he had no idea his life would soon be in grave danger, and that his adventures would lead him to the deepest part of the asteroid belt in search of a cold-blooded killer. An exceptional, thought-provoking outer space murder mystery.
