The year is 2030 and for the first time in history a being more intelligent than humankind walks the Earth. Eva is the beautiful AI masterpiece of the brilliant Professor Szymanski. She looks and sounds almost perfectly human and learns every second of every day with unrelenting drive. For Senator Roebuck and his committee, Eva is an existential threat to the future prosperity of workers and society itself. Their answer is the AI Safety Bill, designed to secure American jobs and head off the threat of a super-intelligent AI takeover.

On the other side of the world, the British Army have been trialling military robots in the fight against the Islamic Caliphate. The extremists have overrun vast swathes of the oil-producing Middle East and North Africa, cutting off the energy supplies and trade routes Britain needs to thrive. The country stands alone in a dangerous world, having left the EU after the 2019 referendum and the winding up of NATO in 2027. The war drags on, aiding the rise of the British Independence Party to power in 2040 and costing the lives of thousands of soldiers. It becomes a national imperative to transform the army and make the country great again. The army turns to the latest military robotics tech on a scale never seen before; and following America’s example, Britain must do it without the banned AI technology.

Victor Zane and British Defence Systems—world leaders in military robotics—are counting on the huge order of humanoid infantry units. The machines will eventually replace combat troops and spare many soldiers’ lives. And with the prospect of investment and job creation, it is a deal with widespread support. But what is the real purpose of such a powerful military machine and can humans be trusted where AI is not?
Russia has profited from billions of dollar of weapons sales to the Islamic Caliphate and does not intend to stop now. With America and China’s token interest, their energy autarky and other priorities, the forces of the Islamic Caliphate seem impossible to dislodge. But if Britain can manage to do the job with her new army then the rewards are potentially huge.

Meanwhile Roman Sinclair and E-Vision Entertainment launch their latest video game—Mercenary Wars. Army recruiters are there to find operators for the new robot soldiers. But can they ever replace the troops that risk their lives in real combat? Can they ever feel the same weight of ethical decisions taken in the field?

The Russian scheme to steal world-leading robotics technology concerns Sophie Walsh and Dean Ashley of MI5. As events unfold, will they discover what the enemy is really plotting in time?

Will Britain return to greatness or will the dark forces at work change the country, and the world, forever? Can anything resist the greatest robotic war machine humankind has ever made?
