synopsis

2179: Mars has been colonized by Earth, populated by humans and Second Type robots - robots designed to perform the menial tasks humans won’t do. Ross Sylibus was a cop based on Earth, whose last partner was killed by a rampaging robot. Ross barely survived the attack and is now half robot. When he transfers to Mars, his hatred towards robots will be put to the test as a madman, Rene D’anclaude, begins to massacre the “Third Types” - illegal humanoid robots designed to look and behave exactly like humans and live among the Martian population as citizens. Ross’ partner, Naomi Armitage, has a hair trigger for both her temper and her gun, and a secret: she is also a “Third”. Ross must confront his biases and realize that being human is more than just being made of flesh and blood to help his partner survive and to discover what sinister force is backing D’anclaude.
