Synopsis
On the intergalactic trading station William S. Burroughs, profit is king and aliens are the kingmakers. Earthlings have bowed to their superior power and weaponry, though the aliens - praying-mantis-like Grodos with pheromonal speech and gargantuan Collosaurs with a limited sense of humor - kindly allow them to do business through properly controlled channels.
That's where our hero comes in, name of Raymond. As part of the android police force, this positronic robot detective navigates both worlds, human and alien, keeping order and evaporating wrongdoers. But nothing in his centuries of experience prepares him for Makrow 34, a fugitive Cetian perp with psi powers. Meaning he can alter the shape of the Gaussian bell curve of statistical probability - making it rain indoors, say, or causing a would-be captor to shoot himself in the face. Raymond will need all his training - and all his careful study of Chandler's hardbitten cops - to outmaneuver his quarry.
