Robot Love and Death Plainchothesman Elijah Baley must travel to the planet Aurora to investigate the murder of Robot Jander. He would rather not. His last trip off-Earth on police business resulted in a TV drama being made of the case-as a result of which even his son Bentley suspects Elijah had an affair with Gladia Delmarre, the murder suspect whom he proved innocent. Not only does Gladia now live on Aurora, the murdered robot belonged to her...and was her lover! Elijah is teamed once more with Robot Daneel, and they are joined by another interesting robot, Giskard. The investigation should benefit from a secret and unique ability possessed by Robot Giskard. But Elijah is distributed by his presence, sensing perhaps that Giskard knows but Elijah does not is that the future of mankind in space hangs on the outcome of this investigation... 'Compelling, well-crafted...a good old-fashioned mystery' The three laws of robotics: (1) A robot any not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm (2) A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law (3) A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the first or second law
