I ended up with 2 copies of this book so this one is going to be finging a new home.


Synopsis

Tracking a fugitive's credit card purchases, Artificial Intelligence Personality Turing Hopper and her friends are lured to a vacant house--and what they discover could get them all "deleted."

Publishers Weekly
Expert plotting and a highly original heroine lift Andrews's third entry in her Agatha Award-winning series starring an almost-sentient computer (after 2003's Click Here for Murder). "Artificial Intelligence Personality" Turing Hopper has been monitoring the credit cards of notorious criminal-at-large Nestor Garcia, waiting for signs of activity. When suddenly thousands of dollars of purchases begin appearing, Turing traces them to deliveries to a vacant house in northern Virginia. For Garcia to be using his credit card in such a manner is highly suspicious, so Turing and "her" assistants, including human friends Tim and Maude, who work for Washington's Universal Library, start investigating. Tim watches the vacant house, but when a dead body turns up, Tim could well be the police's only real suspect in the murder. Later, someone tries to break into Maude's house, and Turing realizes that a devious plot is unfolding. Could Nestor Garcia be behind it all? As Turing works on the puzzle, racing against time, she observes everything with the wry, witty musings on human-computer relations that make this "techno-cozy" series a true standout
