These days, even the humans are built by robots. Charlie7 is the progenitor of a mechanical race he built from the ashes of a dead world - Earth. He is a robot of leisure and idle political meddling - a retirement well-earned. Or he was, until a human girl named Eve was dropped in his lap. Geneticists have restored Earth’s biome and begun repopulation. But primate cloning is in its infancy; human cloning is banned. Far from a failed genetics experiment, Eve is brilliant, curious, and heart-breakingly naive about her species’ history.

Una sencilla operación de recogida y entrega. Nada de preguntas, nada de cotillear en qué consiste el cargamento. Lo único que hace falta es una nave discreta y una tripulación que pueda mantener a raya la imaginación y la conciencia hasta la entrega. El Mobius es el candidato perfecto, pero cuando los miembros de la tripulación no pueden controlar la curiosidad, se enfrentan a un dilema moral. ¿Se olvidarán del tema y seguirán como si no hubiera pasado nada? ¿Se pondrán en contacto con las autoridades? ¿Aceptarán el dinero y se largarán? 

The Mobius is a cobbled-together ship with a matching crew. Captain Carl Ramsey is an ex-Earth Navy pilot whose crew won't let him fly his own ship. The pilot is his ex-wife, the mechanic is a drunk, and the chief of security is from a predatory species. Instead of a star-drive to travel through the astral space between worlds, the ship's wizard does it by hand.

The greatest threat to humanity might be one of their own. Eve has responsibilities now. As chairwoman of the Human Welfare Committee, she is humanity’s voice in a world run by robots. Her job includes approving geneticists who want to engage in ethical human cloning as well as overseeing the agency that hunts down threats to mankind. So when one of her sisters vanishes, Eve can’t afford to abandon her post to personally search. Eve’s agents hunt for her missing sister, but in the process, they run afoul of some influential robots.
