'Welcome to the Peace Force!

'Would you work for a deranged robot? Harriet Walsh does!

'It's her first day on the job, and Peace Force trainee Harriet Walsh is given a pretend case to solve. It's not like she can take on a real case, because Dismolle is a peaceful planet and there's absolutely no crime.

'That's about to change, though, because Harriet's unearthed some real, live suspects. Now she just has to find out what kind of crime they're committing!

'Unfortunately, Harriet's weapon won't fire without the right paperwork, the patrol car keeps asking her out, and her crime-fighting computer is so basic it doesn't have solitaire.

'No wonder some call it the Peace Farce!'
