Susan Jones, the inventor of the world’s most advanced sex doll, the Sexbot, has stumbled upon a method for downloading human awareness into intelligent machines. Recognizing the market value of immortality, the company she works for, Suncoast Cybernetics, decides to murder her.
Just before she’s killed, she successfully downloads herself into the most intelligent machine she has available – the prototype for the ninth generation of Sexbots. Now, Susan is Number Nine, dead but somehow alive, on the run from the company, and out to avenge her own murder.
