In a future where androids are common, a cyborg detective and his human partner are assigned to investigate a series of murders committed by a gynoid—a female robot—that was supposed to be incapable of violence. Their investigation leads them into the murky ethics of robotics, the nature of consciousness, and the blurred lines between human and machine, soul and program.
