Another golden morning in a seedy town, and a new memory tape for intrepid PI-turned-hitman--and last robot left in working order-- Raymond Electromatic. When his comrade-in-electronic-arms, Ada, assigns a new morning roster of clientele, Ray heads out into the LA sun, only to find that his skills might be a bit rustier than he expected....

Man I am glad I got to read this one!
This felt like the hitman movie married The Godfather, if the hitman would have been a robot.
This one is for the action reader! Car chases, murder, and more await the reader in this one and I couldn't put it down. I will say that some parts of it felt slightly cheesy but that was ok I could over look it. This had a lot of great world building around a sci-fi plot. The plot and story were well formed and flowed wonderfully and the characters were great. I am really happy that I got to read both book one and two. This one has so much more mystery than book one and it was great.
