Can an ex-corporate fixer and a disgraced federal agent on different planets stop an AI takeover?

Stilicho Jones remains on the run, living a life of anonymous luxury with Maia, his personal AI that he refused to get rid of after a worldwide ban on artificial intelligence. But a strange encounter with a robotic pet leads to a startling conclusion: there’s another AI loose upon the world, and it’s looking for him.

Meanwhile, NASA Special Agent Darian Arante has been put out to pasture on Mars, destined to serve out her stalled career in a remote colony. When a routine investigation goes awry, she’s thrust into a planetwide conspiracy that could threaten a fragile peace between the world’s superpowers.
