Andrew Knighton

On the Brink by RB Kelly - Near future scifi in which an artificial human travels to an agricultural space station in search of something that might not exist. On the one hand, this is a story about prejudice & economic division, on the other an exploration of grief & reluctant friendship. Kelly's socially informed setting is very well crafted, & the central relationship compelling. Read if you like near future sf pointing at modern problems.
