Constance

FitzSimmons, Matthew

In the near future, advances in medicine and quantum computers make human cloning a reality. For the rich, the ultimate luxury is cheating death. For militants who oppose cloning, it is an abomination against nature. For young Constance D'Arcy, whose deceased aunt has left her a clone as a gift from her, it's a terrifying thing. After one of the routine monthly reloads of her consciousness, stored for that inevitable transition, something goes wrong. When she wakes up in the clinic, eighteen months have passed. The most recent memories of her are missing. They tell her that the original of hers has died. If that's true, what does she become? The secrets of Constance's new life, so perplexing, are buried deep. And also the answers to the how and why of her death. To uncover the truth, she goes back on what she did in the last few days that she remembers and on her way she crosses paths with a detective who is just as curious as she is. On the run from her, she needs someone she can trust. Because there is only one thing that has become clear to her: they are trying to assassinate her... again.
