Product description

A wealthy family trying to cheat death is overmatched - by a stubborn teenager hiding in a body that looks just like their son. In this taut tale of genetics and entitlement, nature vs. nurture goes horrifically wrong. Dina Blake's fourteen-year-old son, Geoff, has just died for the second time. But everything will be okay. The Blake family's wealth has bought them thousands of clones of each of their children. These children are farmed out to loving families, but with the caveat that the bodies are always available to the Blakes. After Geoff dies, the Blakes upload their son's memories into Nathan, who is unwilling but unable to stay with the family who loved him. Dina's younger daughter, Di, is terrified because she knows something her parents don't - the memory transfer doesn't always go as planned. The Geoff who's been living with them since his first death isn't the person her mother thinks he is, and the families of the bodies the Blakes steal aren't all innocent. When Geoff returns to life in Nathan's body, he has to contend with Nathan's frustrating desire to live and his unexpected ability to fight for his life. For some children to live, others must die. Dina must decide how far she'll go to protect her children, and Geoff must find out if, and who, he's willing to kill.
