Join us for our April book club discussion of Six Wakes by Mur Lafferty. This month’s title is a standalone adult sci-fi mystery that begins when five people wake up in freshly-cloned bodies—and discover their own brutally murdered corpses are the only other occupants of the generation ship.

From the Publisher:

Maria Arena awakens in a cloning vat streaked with drying blood. She has no memory of how she died. This is new; before, when she had awakened as a new clone, her first memory was of how she died.

Maria’s vat is one of seven, each one holding the clone of a crew member of the starship Dormire, each clone waiting for its previous incarnation to die so it can awaken. And Maria isn’t the only one to die recently…
