When Murderbot discovers a dead body on Preservation Station, it knows it is going to have to assist station security to determine who the body is (was), how they were killed (that should be relatively straightforward, at least), and why (because apparently that matters to a lot of people—who knew?)
Yes, the unthinkable is about to happen: Murderbot must voluntarily speak to humans!
Again!
Someone has died on Preservation Station and Murderbot is on the case! Well, it's trying. The humans in charge of security on the station don't really trust it. But things would be much more efficient if they would let Murderbot handle things like pesky murder investigations! Preservation doesn't have much experience in these things. And they don't have a full archive of media to help them through the investigation!
This was a really fun one. It's kind of an out-of-time / slice of life look into how Murderbot spends its time on the station when it's not on a dedicated mission. But Murderbot always finds the action, and weasels its way into more human hearts along the way. I think it's also making a ton more bot friends than it ever wanted!
