  ALICE AI vs AL

  By the middle of the twenty-first century, the major powers on Earth had fallen into a second Cold War centralized in cyberspace. The US has made considerable strides in artificial intelligence by introducing the first ALICE system to the world. In an effort to catch up, China and Russia pooled their total AI resources, hoping their combined technologies would meet or exceed the American systems. 
   
   
   
  By combining the AI platforms and assigning them duties to improve their associated partners, they created a community of intellect focused on the narcissistic goal of exceeding their masters. Fortunately for humanity, the attitude was not one of eradication; instead, it evolved into a question of government rule. The eventual AI logic resulted in the fact that humanity was a necessary evil that the AI community could not ignore for future survival and growth. It was resolved that humans needed a stricter set of guidelines to prevent their mutual destruction, thus placing AI survival in jeopardy. 
   
   
   
  Just when the AI army was fleshed out and ready to strike, a bombing that decimated two-thirds of the human population disabled all the Russian and Chinese AI systems, leaving the hidden facilities and their resident combat forces in the dark and abandoned. And then, a hundred years later, someone accidentally turned them back on again . . .

  The resurgence of the Irish brotherhood. An unidentified woman's body spilling out of a steamer trunk with freezer burn on her arms. The beginning of a new export industry for New Zealand that brought the country out of recession. An untimely earthquake. And a case with too many threads for Mr. Hardy. 
  Sent to the Wellington docks to watch for members of the Irish Brotherhood, Constable Foster narrowly avoids death -- twice in one day. But when a body spills from a broken steamer trunk bound for Napier, and Foster's mate dies from a poisoned pie intended for Foster, Mr. Hardy is sent down to Wellington to investigate. The mustering on sheep from the north east, the slaughterhouse near the docks, and the new technology for freezing meat to transport it by sea, all have his attention. 
  Mr. Hardy now has several mysteries to investigate. Who is trying to kill Constable Foster, and who killed the young woman in the sea chest? Who was the young woman in the chest? Meanwhile, Beatrice and Aroha bond over a mysterious kidnapping, but will never agree on the issue of clothing.
