Human Remains cover

In Human Remains, DCS Kat Frank and AI detective Lock tackle a chilling mystery involving a headless body, past accusations, and a vengeful figure.

In Human Remains, the gripping new suspense procedural from a bestselling author, DCS Kat Frank and AIDE Lock return to confront a chilling mystery. Fresh off their first successful case, the Future Policing Unit is called to a Warwickshire farm where a headless, handless body has been discovered. As they delve deeper into the investigation, the team uncovers evidence that suggests the return of a notorious killer known as The Aston Strangler. Tensions rise not only as the case unfolds but also within the team, complicating their efforts to bring justice to the victims.

As DCS Kat Frank faces accusations regarding a past conviction, her AI partner Lock, the first of its kind, is determined to uncover the truth. Lock's relentless pursuit of facts and logic puts him at odds with Kat, who is desperate to keep her past buried. The stakes escalate when Kat becomes the target of a mysterious figure seeking revenge, forcing Lock to choose between his data-driven approach and his loyalty to his partner. The narrative explores the complexities of human emotion and the potential for AI to learn and adapt in unpredictable ways.

Human Remains raises thought-provoking questions about justice, morality, and the implications of artificial intelligence in law enforcement. As the investigation unfolds, readers are left wondering how far technology can go in understanding human behavior and what consequences await when it does.
