Free Fall
It is the future, and while the world has
changed, crime has not. When an influential lawyer is brutally murdered
at the top of the Beanstalk, a towering exoatmospheric elevator serving
as Earth’s hub of interplanetary trade, Captain Rick Harrison
reluctantly accepts the case. Harrison’s investigation soon leads him
from the sprawling megapolis of New Angeles to the distant moon base of
Heinlein, where he must search for clues amongst an uncooperative
assortment of bioroids, clones, and disgruntled human laborers.
But Harrison quickly finds himself at the center of an ever-deepening
conspiracy. Why did the killer apparently use a mining laser, an
unwieldy weapon? What is the true connection between the victim and a
powerful anti-android lobby? And on the hunt for a killer, a hardened
cop is faced with the one question he never expected: What is the true
definition of humanity?
Free Fall is the first novel based on Fantasy Flight Games’s Android,
conveying a dystopian world of technology and corruption. This rich
universe is masterfully brought to life by New York Times Bestselling
author William H. Keith, winner of the H.G. Wells Award and multiple
Origins awards, and the celebrated author of over 150 novels, short
stories, and other published works.
