Meet Charles, the latest in robot servant technology, programmed for the most menial household chores: loyal, efficient, and logical to a fault, until a rather large fault causes him to murder his owner. Perplexed and without a master, in a society reliant on artificial labor he is suddenly worthless. Fleeing the household he enters a world he never knew existed, where an age-old human hierarchy is disintegrating and a robot ecosystem devoted to its well-being struggles for purpose. Charles faces new challenges, illogical tasks, and irrational characters. He discovers that all it takes to overcome the limits of your programming is a nudge. But can he help fix the world, or is it too badly broken?
