About this series
Marissa Meyer's Cinder meets Netflix's Black Mirror in these YA sci-fi murder mysteries with twisty endings you won't forget.
Book 1: Girl of Flesh and Metal
A devastating accident. An artificially intelligent prosthetic that makes her sleepwalk… A series of murders.
Lena hates her parents' tech company. The world worships each cutting-edge CyberCorp release, but Lena has her doubts. Machines that think for themselves? She doesn't trust them… So when a car accident lands her with the company's first cybernetic arm, she's pissed.
A glitch in the arm's artificial intelligence makes her sleepwalk. Meanwhile, children of CyberCorp employees start dying in their beds, and thanks to her unwanted nighttime strolls, Lena has no alibi.
Is she a target? A suspect? Lena literally can't sleep at night until she proves her innocence—or her guilt.
Book 2: Clash of Flesh and Metal
She must obey a stranger's orders, or the androids will attack again…
Despite Lena's fears about the dangers of the Model One androids, CyberCorp has shipped them to customers. They work perfectly—except around Lena. When an android attacks one of her best friends, she insists the robots are fatally flawed.
Desperate to keep this situation from spiraling out of control, like it did last time, Lena casts suspicion on everyone she knows. This time, she won't trust anyone. When she gets a threatening note from someone claiming to be controlling the androids, she'll obey—but only to stall for time.
Can she find whoever's responsible, before someone else she loves dies?
Book 3: War of Flesh and Metal
With no way out, she'll face a pissed-off artificial intelligence and two killers…
Lena's ready to put it all behind her. She helped catch two killers who used CyberCorp to commit murder, and starting right now, she vows never to set foot inside the company's headquarters again. But when those killers show up at CyberCorp Tower to confess everything they've hidden, Lena can't resist seeing justice done.
As she steels herself to confront them again, decommissioned androids go berserk inside the headquarters, forcing a lockdown. Lena is trapped inside not only with the killers she brought down—but also with the dangerous technologies she fears.
Can Lena escape, or will she die inside CyberCorp Tower?
The Flesh and Metal trilogy is a thrilling, near-future young adult mystery collection including the first self-published book ever to make the American Library Association's LITA Excellence in Children's and Young Adult Science Fiction Notable Lists.
