Publisher's Synopsis
No good deed goes unpunished.
But Zoey knew 1-Ocean was meant for bigger things. Ocean turned out to be precisely the hotshot Cardinal Machines lawyers described when they tried to persuade her to sign away her rights to him. But when he helped solve a murder, Zoey knew it was time to let him go. She told the FBI and LAPD SWAT teams they could use him... And her android luminary began to rebel. Maybe a crack-shot like Ocean doesn't belong in Zoey's penny-ante world of private investigation? Or maybe he has the exact right mix of skills to dig into the fragmented and overlooked case of a woman's death in an Android Depot? Zoey's faced with fighting her mixed feelings to win back the trust of a now defiant android. And as she delves into the mysterious world of artificial existence, she may just discover the truth behind a woman's forgotten suicide. Sci-fi and mystery fans! Get ready to dive into a world where androids and humans must work together and navigate the uncharted territory between them. If you loved the intense, thought-provoking world-building of Detroit: Become Human, the smart and sassy detective work of Veronica Mars, and the charmingly rogue A.I. of The Murderbot series, the Cardinal Machines series will be a real treat!
