This novel is set on one of two generation ships which set out from Earth centuries ago. During that time, society has devolved into a hierarchy of elite "haves" at the top, with the rest of the population kept poor and subservient, subject to the whims and abuses of the aristocrats.
This is the story of one of the servants, who survives a murder attempt and goes on to plan her own terrible revenge for the crimes of the elites. And she discovers that she may not be so different from them as she thought.
While some parts of the worldbuilding require some willing suspension of disbelief, I found it inventive and interesting -- enough so that I will be seeking out the sequel.
