Originator #1

by Claire Carmichael

Adam and Callie live in a world recovering from devastating plagues that have killed billions. In their rigid society everyone must be ranked as Leet, Mid or Sub. As High Leets, they enjoy all the privileges that this superior rank can offer. But something is terribly wrong. A scandal is breaking that implicates their famous father, Professor Richard Stillman, in an unthinkable crime: the fabrication of human beings, the Frankenstein monsters of the 21 st century. Now Adam and Callie are beginning to wonder about their long-dead brother, David. Was he a victim of the Mardi virus, or was he a failed experiment in the quest for genetic perfection?
