Review Summaries
"The Widowmaker, dying in suspended animation and running out of money to keep him there, is cloned so the clone can earn enough money to keep the Widowmaker alive. But the mission he's sent on--to rescue the daughter of some rich guy--turns out to be something else entirely, forcing the Widowmaker to rely on his instincts and decide which side he's really on."
