The Death & Resurrection of Dixie Valentine

Dixie is an Artificial Person. She has been the personal assistant as well as devoted daughter of William Witherspoon for going on fifty years. But now her Father is dying... Prejudice being what it is he cannot just set her free because AP's are not thought of or allowed to be "persons" under the law. She can only be sold as a "thing" and he knows all too well what will become of his long beloved Dixie. He has set aside, after a long life in business and acquiring unlimited wealth, enough cash and gold as well as diversified properties all over the United States she can live out her life safely and securely almost anywhere. But she has to pretend to walk out into the sea and die so no one will believe she is still around in order to set her free. But this is not the only gift he gives her. He has researched and had created "emotion" chips which allow her to feel real human emotion, to become his real surviving daughter... to fall in love, have children and contribute to make America a better place to live. She must first die then resurrect herself in a post collapse world brought on by the now soundly denounced Democratic Party policies of socialism, gun control and other half baked policy agendas. With real unemployment at a staggering 49% things are looking up but it s a dangerous world and, if she is to live, she must remake herself and a brand new life all the while mourning her very deeply loved Father and his legacy.... while falling in love with her first real boyfriend.
