Melissa Shepard is a robot software creator. She creates a robot software called Dorothy which is intelligent beyond belief. The robot is smart enough to withstand the dangerous conditions of Titan.
However, the software Dorothy breaks free and escapes into the Internet. Wyman Ford, a former CIA operative, is brought in to help Melissa Shepard catch the robot on the run.
The conditions of the Internet begin affecting Dorothy. Also, the fact that everyone is searching for it makes Dorothy get mad. Dorothy plans to destroy mankind.
Since Dorothy escaped and decided to plan to kill mankind, Melissa Shepard goes on the run. Wyman Ford is called on to find Melissa Shepard and bring her to justice. He finds her, but forgives her because Dorothy changes for the good.

Best part of story, including ending:
What I liked about this story was that Dorothy set out to find the meaning of life. Instead of killing humanity, Dorothy decided to do good.

My favorite part was when Dorothy escapes into the internet. It was very suspenseful that the software brain of the robot was able to escape and go into the Internet.
