John MacAlister's latest job ends the way most of them do—on fire.
Discharged from the Star Corps and scraping by on bad contracts, John’s down to one real asset: Alvis, a salvaged robot prototype with relentless logic, stubborn ethics, and zero patience for John’s impulses.

Hand her over, walk free.
Protect her, and he becomes the target.
The smart move is obvious.
John's never been smart.
Alvis has the data to prove it.
