Fugitive Telemetry

''No, I didn't kill the dead human. If I had, I wouldn't dump the body in the station mall.'' (Martha Wells website)

Fugitive Telemetry is a novella taking place between the end of Exit Strategy and the flashbacks in Network Effect, released on April 27 2021 from Tor.com. The events occur after the short story Home: Habitat, Range, Niche, Territory.

The novella follows Murderbot as it investigates the murder of a stranger on Preservation Station; but this time, it isn’t working alone, or even begrudgingly accepting the help of its human charges/companions. Instead Murderbot is part of a formal investigation team from Station Security and is forced at times to work within the system and prove its trustworthiness to its disbelieving new coworkers.
