"ARM" is a science fiction novella by American author Larry Niven. Set in the Known Space cycle, it is the second of five "Gil Hamilton" detective stories.

Hamilton is called to the scene of a murder. The victim is Dr. Raymond Sinclair, a brilliant scientist who has invented a mysterious device that creates a bubble of accelerated time. The murder scene is a locked apartment at the top of a high-rise, where the prime suspect is a beautiful young woman whom Gil refuses to believe is the killer.
