Ani-droids

The world is good. The world is perfect. The world will not be changed from its course.
In violation of the will of the Collective, Mira McAllister set out to create a new breed of ani-droids that can think for themselves. But when she discovers a mouse-droid with unusual quirks to her programming—and darker secrets besides—she may have set in motion an accidental rebellion.
The Collective must not find out.
But the Collective is every other ani-droid on Earth.
