Summary

When machine murders man, one detective is the world's only hope of preventing an all-out-war....

Dhata Mays has become used to living on the fringes. Unlike most of humanity, the detective treats the synth population with the respect they deserve. But when a gruesome murder points to a synth as the perpetrator, Dhata must do everything in his power to discover an explanation before the case goes public.

In a race against time, Dhata discovers a scheme involving cypher hackers, synth prostitutes, and a pair of rival gang bosses that could tear the city apart. When the case puts his loved ones in harm's way, the investigation becomes personal. For Dhata to keep the uneasy peace, he'll have to track down the murderers himself, but no one said he had to take them alive.

The Judas Cypher

An interesting world creation with the synthetic humans, gangsters and the main character, skip tracer and synth advocate, Dhata Mays. The author has managed to create a sympathetic group in the synths, who are just as flawed as the humans that wish to keep them under control.

Much excitement and many surprises

This book finds Dhata no longer on the police force; but instead he is a "skip chaser" who works under contract with is old partner as a detective to solve murder cases. The issues are that someone is killing both synths and humans for body parts and as they try to determine who it is Dhata encounters nothing but obstacles

His investigation takes him into the underworld of Tampa, into the cyber world of Orlando and even gets him kidnapped and taken to Cuba. His previous meeting with the daughter of a Cuban crime lord brings new danger to his life.

He pursues the culprits to protect those he cares about and ends up putting himself and others in danger from the unknown agenda of others.

Outstanding book with great plot and many surprise twists and turns.

The narration was fantastic and easy to follow.

This book was provided free of charge and this review was freely written..

It always rains in this d***ed city.

Tampa, and the Synths are almost indistinguishable from humans. But that doesn't stop people from hating them. And killing them. Dhata Mays and his friend, Jason, are trying to keep the uneasy peace: Jason in the police force and Dhata working for him as a PI. They both know that it would take just one major incident and the whole city could blow apart.
Then a body is found, it's backbone removed, clean, almost surgical, the work of a professional. It's happened before, Synth body parts harvested to be sold for use used in upgrades. But this time the victim isn't a synth. Now why would anyone want the backbone of an human judge?

The second in the Dhata Mays stories, Greg Dragon's sad and seedy vision of a post apocalyptic future is cleverly crafted to world build distinct images in the mind. Dhata himself is well characterised, less so the other protagonists but still sufficient to make them remarkable personalities. I would say 'colourful', but the overall lingering perception is grey, despite some towering glass buildings. Narrator Tucker McDougall again gives a good performance, his slightly lagubrious tone loping through the story capturing Dhata's personality. His pacing is good as is his voicings of the other protagonists, distinct and appropriate.

My thanks to the rights holder of The Judas Cypher who, at my request, freely gifted me with a complimentary copy, via Audiobook Boom. Although the second in the series, this book is entirely stand alone, it's complex mystery more intriguing and involving than the first. Fast paced, it frequently demands an emotional response from the reader of shock and outrage and occasional sadness. An altogether satisfying story. Recommended for all S.F. fans of action packed, futuristic thrillers.
