Death on the Stormrider by Daniel M. Stelzer profile Mystery 2023

About the Story

You'd had such high hopes, starting out. And now you're limping home, tail between your legs, as all your plans for a new life crashed and burned. You barely had enough money to arrange an airship home, an old freighter that needed extra hands on short notice. You thought that would be the end of it.

But now the man who hired you on--the only one on the crew who spoke your language--is dead, and they think your brother did it. If you don't find some way to prove him innocent before the ship lands, he's going to spend the rest of his life rotting in a Kishadu prison.

All you have to do is escape from your cabin, figure out what really happened on this ship, and prove it to the crew...who can't understand a word you say. You have no idea how you're going to manage it. But you're Kiang's last hope. You have to try.

Content warning: This is a murder mystery, which includes genre-typical discussion of death, but no blood or gore. Some mentions of drugs.
