If you think of this as a mystery book, this is a terrible book. There is a mystery element, but it's not solved in a way that a mystery book should be solved.
However, if you think of this as just a sci-fi/political book with a murder in it, it's pretty decent. It gives The Martian vibes, and the moon science and atmosphere is pretty interesting. I'm not usually into political books, but this seemed fairly realistic. The main character is interesting enough (though the focus on the one woman character as The Woman is a little obnoxious).
