Car accidents don’t happen. The last one was fifty-some years ago, somewhere around 2050. Which makes Jordan Bishop’s fatal crash in a self-driving vehicle unusual. Maybe even a murder. Araci Belo doesn't know cars, but he suspects it wasn’t a simple malfunction. Jupyter works with appliances—rice cookers, ovens, whatever calls for help—coaching them back to proper operation. She’s being hounded by a refrigerator with an impossible question. It’s unfortunate Belo doesn’t know Jupyter. It’s unfortunate that Jupyter doesn’t know about the murder. It’s unfortunate a refrigerator only cares about orange juice when it knows who killed jordan. Can a refrigerator solve a murder?

In his fourth book, A.J. Schmitz eviscerates "The Stupid Machine" aka: the human being. Besides shining a blinding spotlight on the human race's terrible habits, awful decision-making, and horrible prejudices, he documents his own misadventures - a solo trip to Europe, his multiple summer school imprisonments, as well as his first visit to the proctologist. It's an inward anthropological study on work, war and physical attraction. All of it told with a humorous bent, guaranteed to make you wish you were reincarnated as a dog.

But new opportunities and fears arise when Alpha station receives news of an incoming ship with no identification. The denizens of Alpha wait anxiously for news about the outsiders, each with their own suspicions about the ship and its origins. Ross and Fallon, crew members of the Galway, believe the unidentified ship belongs to Pell and has come to investigate another massive ship docked at Alpha, The Rights of Man. Though Rights is under the command of the Earth Company, it is not quite perfected--and its true purpose is shrouded in mystery. James Robert Neihart, captain of Finity's End--a huge faster-than-light ship flown by one of the Merchanter Families--has heard whispers of The Rights of Man and wonders at its design and purpose, especially as Sol struggles to rival the progress of the Farther Stars. Now docked at Alpha, he must convince the crews that there is more to The Rights of Man than meets the eye. Because the reasons behind the creation of The Rights of Man, and its true plans, could change everything--not just for Sol, but for the Hinder Stars and the Beyond itself." --
