The Last Hope - E-book - ePub

Park ranger Bill Richardson got a gruesome heads-up on the upcoming robot apocalypse when his son, Kyle, was killed by his self-driving car. His friends mocked him for believing AI was capable of murder-until the bionics came for them all. Now, as one of the last free men in a world dominated by machines, Bill wastes away his time in a remote hunting cabin on the shores of Lake St. Clair. He has no intention of returning to society and holes up with his journal and guns.
Sooner or later, either the remnants of humanity or the bionics will come to finish him off-if despair doesn't get to him first. Fate, however, has other ideas, and when a bionic named Matthew arrives on his doorstep begging for his help in evading a group of lawless, sadistic bionic hunters, Bill is torn between his fear of robots and his sense of decency. It doesn't help that Matthew is handsome and gentle, but Bill's afraid to trust again when machines cost him the most important person in his life.
He's waiting for the other shoe to drop-and what will he do when he discovers Matthew's true purpose?
