I have to be honest. I could not finish this book! The writing is not believable. The grammar is not of the highest quality. It very much feels like this author was writing for word count. Some of the passages are weighted down with irrelevant details and other passages are just, well, unrealistic.
I cannot stress enough how important the technical aspect of writing is to make sure that your story is heard. This story cannot be heard through the noise of the bad writing. It is a shame as there might be a descent or entertaining plot buried in their somewhere, but it just cannot fight through the noise of unrealistic word count writing.
You cannot have two others in a sentence that does not have an one holding it down. No one in the midst of the ER chaos of injured loved ones lists off every agency involved in the search and rescue as a course of updating another friend. What makes a book readable is believing in the characters, their actions, their words, and their thoughts. This book, in the chapters that I could get through, fails on all counts.

Amazing Story!
This story is non-stop action and wonders from the first page through the last! Who would have thought that Cloned people would be anywhere than in a science fiction movie?
The way that Otis Thorne works through what is happening to the how to fix what is happening, is truly Amazing! I am so glad that he is on our side!
Thank you, Arla Jones, for a wonderful story, that may or may not be fiction.
