| Review Summary |
The protagonist, a news reporter, finds his clone while investigating a bizarre death. He finds a mysterious group who has been conducting experiments by creating clones to provide organs for very rich clients. The search for the truth involves very highly placed officials who would like to keep the clones a dark secret. Murder and science combine in a very compelling story.
Margaret Thym, Resident Scholar
