A truly great series
This book was provided free of charge with the expectation of an honest review.
This book was surprisingly good. It was about a police team in Tampa FL in the future who investigate a string of murders. The city is divided between humans and synths. The androids are treated as second class beings and Dhata and his partner face an uphill battle in there search for the guilty and their desire to see justice served.
The narration was outstanding and did a fantastic job with multiple characters and sexes.
This truly was a fantastic book and I look forward to the entire series.

Nobody threatens me and mine.
Set in the twenty second century after war has devastated vast tracts of the U.S., humans and synthetics uneasily co-exist, the latter being almost impossible to determine from their human counterparts. But someone is targeting the synths,, ruthlessly hacking individuals to death. And the police don't really seem interested.
But one officer, Dhata Mays, and his partner, Jason, are horrified by the brutally and the uncaring attitude of their fellow officers and intend to put an end to it, single handed, if necessary. Interesting characters set in a bleak landscape, this is a detective story without much futuristic S.F. This is a shortish novella, obviously intended to introduce the lead protagonist to readers in advance of a series. As such, concentration is more on the nature of the man himself and the unstable, corrupt society around him but the story is still acceptable, if rather frenetic.
Narrator Tucker McDougall gives a good performance, with individually distinct character voicings and a pleasantly intoned, well paced reading of the text, a slightly lagubrious tone capturing the attitude of the main protagonist.
My thanks to the rights holder of Dhata Mays who, at my request, freely gifted me a complimentary copy of the book via Audiobook Boom. I look forward to further books in the series.
