Charon was a ruthless criminal who created and traded in illegal
robots and androids so his death benefits the world--unfortunately his
android Alpha survives to bring his legacy to the world. Alpha is
indistinguishable from a human woman but has superpowers--and General
Thomas finds her as intriguing as she is dangerous. For she is carrying
out her last orders from her maker--and Thomas finds her too human to
kill. An intriguing story of robots, androids, and a touch of love
evolves.
