2.0

Short novella about a quasi-robocop private eye lady, full of damaged parts and cybernetic parts (cool), hunting for a serial killer who kills fancy prostitutes. Some stuff about blackmailing high-level Chinese politicians. Some stuff about Boston's Chinatown.

Meh. This didn't connect with me at all. I found Liu's writing full of telling, telling, telling, and very little showing. I'm also not a huge fan of serial killer/dead prostitute stories, so that was a barrier.
