    Huh, thank you for the summary! What a strange (but fascinating) premise. Definitely a weird book to have during the first week of COVID shutdowns… All the zombie apocalypse stories also hit rather differently when read during COVID lockdown 😅

      It’s probably worth mentioning that the book’s a police procedural / crime novel. 👍 It takes place about 25 years after the fictional pandemic. The story starts off with a robot-piloting protagonist’s first day on the job as part of the FBI’s robot-crimes division. It almost won a Hugo and is worth taking a look at if the premise sounds interesting.
