Jake and Maddie lead the Artificial Crimes Unit in pursuit of the "Baron" as he digitally resurrects history's most notorious serial killers.
"M.T. Bass melds the characters into a macabre tale of murder and mayhem confounded with artificial intelligence...skillfully crafted to keep you entertained and guessing." -Rosepoint Publishing Reviews
Richard Speck, John Wayne Gacy, and Aileen Wuornos all come alive again in the bodies of hacked and reprogrammed Personal Assistant Androids and are turned loose to terrorize the city.
While police detectives Jake and Maddie scramble to stop the carnage and free Amy, the young kidnapped orphan witness, the cyberpunk head of the Counter IT Section, Q, struggles to de-encrypt the Baron's mad scheme to infect world data centers with a virus that is a collective cyber unconsciousness of evil.
"It might not make sense, but the beloved Media tags it 'Murder by Munchausen.' For a price, there are hackers out there who will reprogram a synthoid to do your dirty work. The bad news: no fingerprints or DNA left at the crime scene. The good news-at least for us-is that they're like missiles: once they hit their target, they're usually as harmless as empty brass. The trick is to get them before they melt down their core OS data, so you can get the unit into forensics for analysis and, hopefully, an arrest." [excerpt from Murder by Munchausen]
