Haze

In a future where space travel depends on the delicate hyperspace "shunts," Haze follows a diverse team of misfits, including a struggling starship pilot, as they embark on a critical mission for The Fleet to investigate troubling rumors threatening their interstellar civilization. This unique crew, composed of an AI expert, a pattern-detecting soldier, an alien sharpshooter, and a determined captain, uncovers deep secrets that could destabilize their society. Blending intrigue with themes of bisexuality and polyamory, the novel offers a rich, character-driven narrative set against the backdrop of a multi-alien society governed by the Rim Council.
