| Publisher Description: Meet Sally: A fully-functioning-female-human-imitation-android, the world's most lifelike automaton. Her physical appearance and her entire personality can be augmented with a simple change in programming. She can be anyone you want her to be, for whatever purpose. She was roboticist Dr. Harold Okamura's lifelong ambition, a dream he's finally realised. But it could come at a grave cost, as creating her has broken the first law of modern robotics, an offense punishable by imprisonment. But more than that, he may have betrayed his morals for this achievement. A man of dubious intent, Mr. Jerrald Axell, the money-hungry CEO that commissioned Sally's creation, has less-than-honorable plans for his new android. He exploits the worst of humanity purely for monetary gain, and a great deal more. As Sally goes through a trial period, Dr. Okamura and his faithful android servant, Cran, monitor Sally as she is tested by three clients--all men of very questionable motives. Harold's past comes back to haunt him when Sally is programmed to physically resemble his decreased wife, from the freckles on her face down to her the toes on her feet. The experiment then becomes all too real for him. For fans of Robopocolypse, Blade Runner, WestWorld, and Ex Machina this story of androids and intrigue cannot be missed Available in digital, print and audiobook. |
