The Doormen

Twenty years in the future, life is pretty easy for Baltimore homicide detective Dan Harper. Technology identifies the victims, flies the surveillance drones, drives the cars, and vets the potential suspects. Harper simply has to snap the cuffs on the perp and then file the paperwork. Until one day a body shows up that all the tech in the world can’t ID. As Harper and his partner, Domingo Delgado, start to pluck at the few clues available to them, however, they soon find themselves hunted by enemies who seem to materialize out of thin air. On the run and outgunned, Harper and his allies soon find themselves racing against a shadowy villain who is convinced that a few dead bodies are a small price to pay to change the world.
