Summary
Hank Anderson ended his 32-year career as a homicide detective in Baltimore by killing the man who shot his partner. The grand jury sentences him to six months in the new Monitor program: an advanced prototype android named Connor is assigned to follow Hank's every move. He's not happy about it, but it beats rotting in jail - even if the widower of the man he killed is still calling for justice.
Hank is sure at first that Connor is just going to have to watch him drink himself to death. Then a break-in at his house reveals a side of the city he has never seen, and plunges both he and Connor into an underworld of narcotics, exploitation, and murder. But the rabbit hole goes much deeper still: a hidden resistance movement, mistaken identities, altered bodies and fabricated memories. The more he uncovers, the more certain Hank is that he was set up to take a fall...and may not have been the first.
Forced together by circumstance and pulled by the momentum of the case, Hank and Connor develop a mutual fascination, and an inexplicable need to protect each other in a world where emotions can be drugs and the line between human and non-human is increasingly blurred.
