Core Melt is NOT an action thriller
Strange title for a post! Sometimes it's important to say what a book isn't, especially for fans of FX Holden action thrillers who might be expecting the same thing from the Coruscant series.
The Coruscant novels are 'suspense thrillers' ie more intrigue, less action, but the same twisty plots. Think Blade Runner and Asimov, plenty of plot, character, world-building, not so many action scenes.

About the Coruscant series: Three hundred years ago humans terraformed and colonized the moons of the planet Coruscant. To help them manage the many challenges of life in the Coruscant system, they created an AI, The Core. The prime directive of The Core is the preservation and promotion of all life on the Moons of Coruscant. To assist in the execution of its mandate, The Core has created bioware A.I.s, colloquially known as cybers; artificially grown biological bodies with cybernetically enhanced brains able to interface directly with The Core. Through its cybers, The Core can learn first hand how Coruscant's citizens live, survive and thrive, and optimize the social, environmental and economic environment to benefit them.
Not all colonies in the Commonwealth have connected their cybers to the Core. New Syberia is a hold-out, not willing to sign on to the sort of freedoms for its cybers that Core membership demands.
The Core takes its role as protector of all of the citizens of Coruscant very, very seriously.
