Catherine Mercer's assignment was easy enough: interview an interstellar freighter pilot whose ship had fallen victim to a pirate attack near the Earth planetary colony of Aranae. As an IPS agent, following orders is her duty. As an artificial intelligence, she is property. Her life and destiny belong to those who own her, and compliance is mandatory.
But when her simple fact-collecting mission blows up into a dangerous manhunt for the pilot-turned-fugitive, Catherine finds herself up to her neural nets in prejudice, betrayal, and government scandal-a bit much for a two-year-old android law enforcement agent.
During the course of her pursuit, Catherine realizes she must confront a greater challenge: that she may be more than the sum of her synthetic material, computers, and programs. If she is more than a machine, who can own her?
Sail the stars with Catherine on her journey to find her true self, that being human transcends physical form. A spirit yearning for freedom resides within the body and fights suppression. But androids do not have souls or spirits. Right?
Book One, Who Owns You?, launches The Stars Rain Down series.
