Aspects of Me

OFFICER ROBYN WEAVER expected this case to be just like any other she worked on. Duplicating a mind is a delicate task, and sometimes the copy doesn’t quite agree with the new status quo. She didn’t expect that she would become so close to the case.

Set in Vancouver after a devastating population crunch, Robyn is just one of millions in Canada who use technology to duplicate her consciousness. These secondary bodies, called Aspects, are seen as an extension of the self and used to supplicate the diminished work force, helping keep the economy alive. At the end of a week, the Aspect’s memories are downloaded back into the original human body, and the artificial body is ready for the next upload. However, some Aspects reject their fate and commit the ultimate crime: going Rogue and keeping the new memories for themselves, splintering away from their original personality. It is up to Officer’s like Robyn to track down these Rogue’s and bring them to justice, restoring the memories to the rightful owners.

When Robyn begins her hunt for CHESTER_ROBINSON_A-03, she expects the case to be simple enough- it’s only been two days since the Aspect has gone missing, and she knows the bar where he was last spotted. Her perspective quickly changes when she discovers suspicious barkeep and a door where it should not exist. And when she discovers that she has played into the Rogue’s hands and has fallen into a trap, Robyn will have to make the ultimate decision- how much do her memories mean to her?
