Cardinal Ignition

Zoey Collins, born into the preeminent Cardinal family as Katherine Cardinal, is settled and happy with her life private investigating and bagging bail-jumpers. Recent edition to that routine, Cardinal Machines law enforcement android model C001-Oisín -- Ocean -- blends as well into the mix as she does into his occasional S.W.A.T. team and F.B.I. assists. For the first time, she's starting to feel like she has a partner in crime. And it's hard to resist making her beautiful prototype a passion project in her personal life... if that's even possible, which she's pretty sure from the anti-android sentiment on the rise in the U.S.A, it isn't.

Still, it's not easy to stop a runaway train. Throwing herself into her work is her answer, right up till the point where she runs afoul of an ignored missing person's case that Zoey Collins could never afford to take, but Katherine Cardinal, Missy Moneybags, sure could. With all this going on, what she doesn't need is a dangerous new wrinkle in Ocean's growing fame.
