Previously published as The Oneiromancer of Mars, Girl in a Spacesuit is a stand-alone novel that takes place several years after the events that unfolded in Old Man in a Spacesuit. Minra is a devoted single mother, fighting to keep a roof over her head as she survives in a flooded high-rise in Sri Lanka. She lives in a world that no longer has safety nets. Because Earth is dying. When she learns she has inherited a home from an unknown relative, she suspects there must be a catch. There is. Her new home is on Mars. How can Minra risk the perilous journey to another planet when she has a daughter to protect? Will she even be accepted into Martian society, when her only talent is reading dreams and telling fortunes?
