They built Kess Turner to pass for human.

She has red hair, green eyes, and the kind of beauty that makes men turn their heads. She also has a detective's badge, a micro-fusion cell where a human heart should be, and enough armor under her skin to survive bullets that would kill a man.

When violence erupts in the glittering orbital city of Savitar I, Kess is sent to find out who is feeding the riots. Instead, she finds burned offices, dead witnesses, hired killers, and a trail leading to one of the richest men in the Empire.
