Overview
It was supposed to be a routine trip for the members of the Gordian Division, both human and AI: fly out to Saturn, inspect the construction of their latest time machines, then fly back.Ā
But when the divisionās top scientist and chief engineer are killed in the same freak accident, suspicions of foul play run deep. Detective Isaac Cho is sent in to investigate, but he has more on his mind than just a new case. His superiors have saddled him with an exchange officer from the neighboring AdmināSpecial Agent Susan Cantrellāwhose notion of proper ālaw enforcementā involves blowing up criminals first and skipping questions entirely.Ā
Despite his objections, Cho is stuck with an untested partner on a case that increasingly reeks of murder and conspiracy. The unlikely pair must work together to unravel this mystery, and soon they discover their unique combination of skills might just provide the edge they need.Ā
But nothing is ever simple where the Gordian Division is involved.Ā
Not even time itself.
