![]() In this future Earth, a New York City detective must meet and work with an off-world robotic partner.
The pair must work together to solve the murder of a prominent Spacer on the over-populated Earth.
The "R" in his partner's name stands, of course, for "Robot."
Compare to the undercover detective robot from The Velvet Glove (1956) by Harry Harrison, the precogs from The Minority Report (1956) by Philip K. Dick, the Pry-Vie robotic detective from Clans of the Alphane Moon (1964) by Philip K. Dick and Sven, the artificially intelligent detective from The Turing Option (1992) by Harry Harrison.
