"Dorothy is terrific as an investigator, and traveling the space lanes from inside her wry, witty head is a great way to solve a mystery." — Library Journal (starred review)
"[A] playful hybrid of Golden Age Detective fiction and an entirely novel version of the generation-ship trope.... Playful in tone but serious in aspect, it makes for a refreshing morsel."--Locus

“I found myself nearly racing to finish the book… Her character work in particular shines. All these people she creates stay in your imagination. Those characters live outside the page, leave a mark on the reader.” — The Lesbrary
“This superb novel, set during Regency times, unveils the love story between two intelligent women... Waite gives full voice to the unfair prejudice that women faced. She also provides a multi-ethnic Regency world that comes alive with scientific curiosity. Highly recommended for fans of both Remarkable Creatures and Gentleman Jack, this first in the Feminine Pursuits series deserves widespread attention.” — Historical Novels Review
