- About the book
- When quick wits and loyalty are put to the test
Mitnash and his AI companion Slate, coders and investigators of interplanetary fraud, are at work
again in Timing, the sequel to Far from the Spaceports.
This time their travels take them from Jupiter to Mars, chasing a small-scale scam which seems a
waste of their time. Then the case escalates dramatically into threats and extortion. Robin’s
Rebels, a new player in the game, is determined to bring down the financial world, and Slate’s
fellow AIs are the targets. Will Slate be the next victim?
The clues lead them back to the asteroid belt, and to their friends on the Scilly Isles. The next
attack will be here, and Mitnash and Slate must put themselves in the line of fire. To solve the
case, they need to team up with an old adversary – the only person this far from Earth who has
the necessary skills to help them. But can they trust somebody who keeps their own agenda so well hidden?
