Jemisin and Jamal Campbell's Far Sector (from DC Comics' Young Animal imprint), Green Lantern Sojourner "Jo" Mullein is assigned to the City Enduring, a sprawling megalopolis of some 20 billion souls at the far end of space, where she becomes embroiled in a twisty plot involving politics, corruption and murder.
