A man lies dead inside a locked workshop. Cameras show no one entered or left. The only suspect: a blood-spattered robot.
Max is the only cop on Mars ever to solve a murder. But because the victim was his friend—and because Max brought the robot back from the asteroid belt—his boss wants him off the case. Max keeps digging.
Every suspect must answer Max’s questions truthfully. But if a question forces them to incriminate themselves, the law sets them free. To catch a killer who can’t lie, Max must uncover the truth without asking a single question that could expose them.
Olympus City is buried inside a Martian volcano, where every life depends on tightly controlled systems for air, water, and power. Then someone tries to silence the robot. More people die. And Max discovers that the murder is part of a conspiracy threatening the entire city.
To save the city, Max must work with SCIFI, a robot that learned about humans from old-Earth TV shows. Unfortunately, it has a talent for asking the wrong questions—and breaking down at the worst possible time.
Blending a locked-room mystery with grounded science, fast action, and dry humor, SCIFI BOOK ONE is for readers who love clever puzzles, believable technology, and a robot with secrets and a wicked sense of mischief.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - One stubborn cop. One mixed-up robot. A murder mystery and a conspiracy to destroy the only city on Mars.Max is the only cop on Mars who's ever solved a murder. But when his friend is killed in a locked workshop, his boss doesn't want him on the case. They already have a suspect: a mysterious robot. There are no robots on Mars-there's a good historical reason for that. Unfortunately, it was Max who brought this one back from the asteroid belt after it saved his life. Maybe that's why he's sure it's innocent. The robot claims to remember nothing. Its memory is empty-until it starts filling it with old TV shows from Terra. That gives it a unique personality but also causes problems. Martian culture is very different from a '90s sitcom. Max searches for the killer with the robot by his side. But as he follows the clues, he uncovers a conspiracy that threatens the survival of Olympus City. The city is built inside Olympus Mons, an extinct volcano. Its inhabitants depend on a fragile network of engineering systems for survival. Air, power, water, food. Everything must work perfectly if they are to live. Now someone wants to bring it all crashing down. If you like fast-paced stories with secrets, surprises, double-crosses, competent heroes, solid science, and a little humor, then you'll love SCIFI BOOK ONE: A Murder Mystery on Mars.
