Void

Good start, but the mystery felt weak when ultimately revealed.

A quick space mystery with a tight provoking point. I love stories that make me think. I wish this were a bit longer. That said, Roth leaves me to plumb the depths of the point. 

Outside of the setting, this is simply a short murder mystery. I do feel that the author successfully baits the reader into thinking there is going to be something different going on due to the SF setting, but it ends up being pretty traditional. Fairly nice twist, though, so 4/5 for me.
