In a world where human cloning is more prevalent than ever, it's hard to live being treated like a dispensable resource. There are Clone Villages, nicknamed "C-V's," all over the country, full to bursting of exact genetic copies of nearly everyone in the United States. Life in the C-V is brutal - clones are treated as though they're not human. Originals don't bother with their clones unless they need to harvest a body part. They don't believe that clones are worth their concern or compassion. But Brie might just be able to prove them all wrong.

Jason Conroy is a popular 16 year old with the world at his feet. That seemed to be the case until unexpectedly, and out of character, his father David informs him that they are to move to a desolate part of northern England for work reasons, leaving everything Jason loves behind. With only his cat Kato for company, the Conroy's arrive at their new home much to Jason's distaste. Things go from bad to worse as Jason struggles to settle, finding everything to moan about from the constant strange, dreary light outside and the spooky old house to inhospitable locals. On his first venture out Jason meets Jo, a beautiful but feisty 18 year old.
