Dr Ari Goldman is dead, bludgeoned with a steel bar in his laboratory - and
positronic robot N-8C ("Nate") was the only other "person" in the room at the time.
Now Nate's creator Lawrence Robertson, who programmed him, is under arrest for
murder - even though Susan Calvin knows perfectly well that the Three Laws of
Robotics mean that no robot could possibly kill a human being, and that both Nate
and Lawrence are being set up. It's up to her, with help from homicide detective
Jake Carson, her good friend Kendall Stevens, and a handsome stranger who
entered her life by saving her from an attack in Central Park, to see that justice is
done.
