“As a heartless killing
machine, I was a complete failure.”

In a corporate-dominated spacefaring future,
planetary missions must be approved and supplied by the Company. Exploratory
teams are accompanied by Company-supplied security androids, for their own
safety.

But in a society where contracts are awarded to
the lowest bidder, safety isn’t a primary concern.

On a distant planet, a team of scientists are
conducting surface tests, shadowed by their Company-supplied ‘droid—a
self-aware SecUnit that has hacked its own governor module, and refers to
itself (though never out loud) as “Murderbot.” Scornful of humans, all it
really wants is to be left alone long enough to figure out who it is.

But when a neighboring mission goes dark, it’s up
to the scientists and their Murderbot to get to the truth.
