    About this series

    For fans of Bladerunner and Brave New World comes a new twist…

    Perfection has arrived.

    Synthetic stem cells mean no more organ failure, no more pharmaceuticals. No cancer. The human race is stronger, smarter and prettier. Is it better?

    Cali Richards is a nanobiometric engineer who has been her younger brother's guardian since their parents died. She's lost too many people in her life to lose another. When the government declares the Halfskin Laws will shut down anyone with too many synthetics, she decides to hide him. But even brilliance can succumb to the pressure of suffering. And synthetics can't cure insanity.

    Follow their twisting, slippery grip on reality as they strive to find happiness in a world that has everything it could possibly want.
