Publisher's Summary
Graduation is closing in fast for Zoey Collins and she's facing tough choices when it comes to supporting herself. Being the great niece of mother of A.I., Katherine Cardinal, doesn't mean she's rolling in green. But the Collins family is rife with penetration-testers and Private Eyes, a gene Zoey's inherited in spades.
Zoey's trying to make it on her own when her great aunt dies, leaving her a prototype Cardinal Machine called Ocean. Both beautiful and buttoned-down, this machine ends up installed in Zoey's now-empty front room. What does a girl do with a sweet custom android like Ocean? Why, what any girl would do. She takes him out to pick up bail jumpers that'd otherwise be a problem to apprehend. And he's a natural! Because the Ocean models were designed for federal investigations and general law-enforcement.
However, when she takes on the case of a bail jumper who would be her biggest bank, a man who would have bagged Zoey 5000$, she finds out her skip is dead in a seaside park. The Sheriff's Department rules it an accident, but her Ocean's assessment of the scene calls it murder...

Excellent
Both the story and narration were extremely good. The heroine was an 18 yr old and the author managed to make her believable as an intelligent young female on the verge of adulthood. She was complex - brave, weak, confident, unsure, rash, intelligent, yet acted immature on occasion. Add into the boiling pot of loss/abandonment/bullying issues, she now owns the most advanced AI prototype on the planet, that was created to be as attractive and he/it was functional. This leads, naturally enough, to her developing a crush on the unattainable ‘boy’. The question is, CAN he like her back? Thankfully, the story is not all teenage angst, so we have a mystery to solve and moral dilemmas to ponder. I am sorry that the rest of the series is not on Audible, so I will have to find the time to sit and read the other books.
