Seeker

I haven't read much mystery. I've read a few SF/F mysteries and a few have been good, a few not so good. This one lands somewhere in the middle. It was entertaining and I'm quite impressed that it wasn't just a mystery in a science fiction setting. The plot was about the fate of missing colony ships from the Earth's distant past, the 27th century. There were some standard mystery tropes, like the bad people who are trying to prevent the heroes from making their discovery. It was entertaining, but this book won the Nebula in 2006. I would have expected a much higher caliber story and much better writing.
