Pembroke-385

Valeska Aquino, the colony commander, is dead. Murdered right in the middle of the icy colony of Morgan’s Perch – and no-one knows who did it. Tensions were already high, but this might just be the thing that sets the colony aflame.

This is a system agnostic sci-fi murder mystery, set on the first colony on an icy planet, mainly populated by genetically modified humans. As political tensions rise and a storm brews, the murder must be solved before it's too late.

Content Warnings: violence, fictional prejudice, death, murder, assassination, freezing to death.
