When a workaholic techie misses work for several days, his friend, Turing, does the only neighborly thing and checks in on Zack. She checks to see if he's logged in from home. No luck. Then she skims the databases of local banks. Nothing. Next she searches hospital records throughout the state. No Zack. Turing is no crazed stalker: she is an artificial intelligence personality of Zack's creation. But, unlike other AIPs, Turing is sentient-and she senses foul play.

The story is about an AI computer who begins to worry about her programmer when he goes missing. She gets the help of two human "friends" and together they attempt to find out why he's gone missing.
