Responsible for reconditioning used androids for resale, Marguerite unexpectedly finds herself shepherd over Gabriel, a synthetic who's suffered a lifetime of experimental abuse at the hands of a sadistic owner. Now she must address his psychological damage as well, a task made no easier by the looming threat that his abuser may want him back.
The Golden Hour
Unwilling to let him waste his last days doing laundry and washing dishes, she instead takes him on a cross-country journey to find the families who once owned and loved him, rediscovering his past and getting a second chance to finally pursue her own forgotten passions.
Eve
Michael Presby has a question that needs an answer: can artificial intelligence beget artificial intelligence? Can an android, released from the restraints that keep it docile and unimaginative, create something beyond the scope of human invention?
Eve may be the answer.
The Presby's android housekeeper is calm, kind, and devoted to the family in her charge. There's no one more trustworthy to test the forbidden waters of artificial intelligence.
But when Eve encounters one of her own kind, broken and abandoned by the humans she trusts, a new question arises: what will she do with the knowledge, and her new found freedom?
