Machines of Easy Virtue: A Red Bourbon Mystery (The Red Bourbon Mysteries Book 1)

"What an unexpected pleasure... a very well-realized futuristic world." -- Shayne Bither
Sex, Robots, and Hot, Flying Lead.

In the poverty-wracked streets of late 21st-century Chicago, private detective Theodore "Red" Bourbon dodges punks and muggers, scrapes out a living tailing errant spouses, and downs an endless stream of pills to keep his head together. When wealthy heiress Elena Snowe steps into his office and tells him a domestic robot killed her father, his luck takes a turn. Lured by the promise of a fat payday, he agrees to hunt down the servant, not knowing treachery, jail, and murder are just around the corner.

In Machines of Easy Virtue, Red Bourbon faces a world where the jobs have gone to robots and the rich shed their humanity through mind-bending genetic treatments.
