Summary

In the booming metropolis of New Tokyo, a high-ranking business executive is tasked with transporting valuable company data in the form of an information package stored inside his mind. Fearing an attack from one of the Federation's oldest criminal organizations, the corporation entrusts his safety to the Ayers-Ross Thoughtprotection Agency.

But this time, he finds himself facing an enemy who seems to be able to predict his every move. 
 
Fighting to adapt to an unprecedented situation, Sheldon suspects that behind the attack lies an unlikely adversary – someone even he couldn't have prepared for, someone with ties to Sheldon's past.

    It’ll take all three alphas to see to this omega’s needs. After getting free from her abusive mate, Tracy wants nothing to do with another alpha.

The detective is handsome and charming, but Tracy won’t let herself fall for that again. Five years have passed since Sam fell out of contact with his best friends, Mason and Dylan, but with Tracy in danger, he has to call in both alphas, despite the bad blood between them. Some rifts are hard to mend, and the three face more fractures when they find themselves drawn by the same omega yet again. Tracy has no idea how to deal with the three alphas, and even as the life they offer tempts her, she resists. They all bear the scars of romance-gone-bad, and the risk of giving in seems too costly. As Tracy and the alphas struggle to stay one step ahead of the men after her and the alphas work to put a broken friendship back together, they all have to fight to move forward. Can they put the past to rest or will it bury them all?

    Based on the international award-winning screenplay and set in a future where matriarchy has toppled patriarchy, Moroz is a flawed, old-fashioned gumshoe fighting for equality in a society where human-form androids have become the norm. 
Notorious robotics and artificial intelligence whiz Isadora is his greatest adversary yet his only hope to restore justice between the sexes. Yet her own plans are to keep men under her thumb. 
When Isadora is charged with murder, Moroz must consider the cost of trying to solve the case: something that could cost him his family, any chance of true equality, and his very life. Additionally, footage of Isadora committing the crime makes the task seem a fool’s errand. 
In a world where the lines between human and robot love are blurred, Moroz must also find a way to stop a pending contract that threatens to enable a new rise of the robots, one where their bias seeks to erode men’s rights further and put them on the road to extinction.
