The future is now . . . . In this present-day story, twelve years have passed since AI companion android products have been introduced to the world. Products such as Robot Wife, Robot Husband, and non-gender units, which are programmed to fulfill every owner's desires and needs, are the most popular. They begin to sell millions, and the world succumbs to "Robotmania" as the novelty of owning a robot quickly turns to obsession and addiction among users. Forty-two-year old Jeff Bahr is an ex-police detective and ex-manufacturer whose sudden wealth allows him to drive across the country in his hybrid motorhome accompanied by his Robot Wife, Juliette. One thing Jeff observes in his early retirement travels is that somehow, over time, humans have lost all interest in interacting with one another, choosing cyborg companionship instead.
