A Woman of Silicon

Julie Ross-Turner was an ordinary college student. And like most ordinary college students, she needed money. So she signed up for an experiment that tried to preserve minds after death. This had never been done before, and there was no guarantee it would work. That didn't bother Julie; being eighteen, she thought she would live forever.

A year later, she is in a car accident and loses consciousness. When she wakes up, she is an android. Yes, an android.

The experiment worked a little too well. It has unintentionally created a being that straddles the line between human and machine. Unfortunately, Julie is that being. Now she must fight for her personhood and learn how to live in a body made of plastic, metal, and silicon.
