Overview

In the glittering, sky-layered metropolis of Novus Aster on Rigel 5, danger hides behind elegance-and a single stolen artifact threatens the balance of an entire star system. Stella Derrick arrives on Rigel 5 seeking answers about her father's mysterious disappearance. What she finds instead is a world of dazzling performances, political intrigue, and the shadowy influence of a powerful drug cartel. When the priceless Aurelion Shard-a gem with astonishing and possibly alien properties-is stolen during a gala at the luxurious Novus Grande Hotel, Stella is drawn into a deadly conspiracy she barely understands. Reluctantly aided by the cerebral diplomat Gabriel Welland and the brilliant yet enigmatic IPB investigator Inspector Matthias Veyron, Stella must navigate a maze of secrets tied to a renowned acting troupe whose glamorous façade conceals criminal ambition. As danger closes in and Rigel 5's brightest lights cast its deepest shadows, one truth becomes clear: some performances can kill-and some gems are worth any price. Perfect for fans of classic mysteries and stylish sci-fi worldbuilding.
