    About this ebook

    Mark Mattias is a brilliant software engineer with the veritable "steel trap" mind. He has developed a greatly advanced Artificial Intelligence. Suddenly he awakes in an unknown room, with a total lack of memory, and begins remembering things he didn't realize that he ever knew.

    Christine Morrison is a relentless prime insurance investigator, assigned to find out, from Mark, who is embezzling million's from Mark's company. When they meet, Mark admits that he has forgotten everything, including who he is and the reason for the appointment. Christine has seen all types of insurance scams and won't let this one go. Instinct tells her she can find the culprit. Is Mark who he said he is? Is he that android? Is it his boss? She believes she can find the answer--she always does.

    Little does she know how wrong she is.

    Little does she know how wrong they BOTH are.

      Hey, man. I wasn’t sure exactly how to start this. I needed to write this letter—the details are such that they have to be written down—but I’m not much of a prose stylist, so you’ll just have to bear with me. And I do hope you’ll forgive this; I kno
