En el Enclave Espacial, a las afueras de la Ciudad de Nueva York, un científico de los Mundos Exteriores ha aparecido asesinado. El detective Elijah Baley tiene que ocuparse de este caso en la para el inquietante y odiosa compañía de un robot humanoide: R. Daneel Olivaw. La investigación es delicada ya que puede terminar con el equilibrio entre los descendientes de la colonización estelar, en perfecta comunión con los robots, y los habitantes de la Tierra, que, refugiados en grandes metrópolis subterráneas a las que llaman Ciudades, sobreviven precariamente a la falta de recursos naturales y temen a los robots.

Work Description
"A Del Rey book."
It was bad enough when Lije Baley, a simple plainclothes cop, was ordered to solve a totally baffling mystery - the murder of a prominent Spacer. It was worse when he found that the smug, self-satisfied Spacers were behind the pressure to provide an impossibly quick solution.
But then Lije discovered the worst of all bad news. The Spacers, distrusting all Earthmen, insisted he must work with an investigator of their choice. And that investigator turned out to be R. Daneel Olivaw. R stood for robot--and Lije hated and feared robots deeply, bitterly and pathologically.
Issac Asimov's The Naked Sun and The Caves of Steel are two of the most famous science-fiction novels ever. They are set long after mankind - aided by the positronic robot - has colonized the worlds of other suns. This is a time of growing concern between Earthmen and Spacers. Lije Baley, who is filled with all Earths prejudice agains robots and Spacers, must learn to work together with a seemingly human robot to solve apparently impossible crimes that threaten the fragile link between Earth and Space.
