Through her research on twins and the genetic components of aggression, scientist Jeannie Ferrami makes a startling discovery. Using a restricted FBI database, she finds two young men who appear to be identical twins: Steve, a law student, and Dennis: a convicted murderer. Yet they were born on different days, to different mothers, in hospitals hundreds of miles apart.

As Ferrami delves into their backgrounds, she unwittingly locks horns with some of the most powerful forces in America, including the university where she works, The New York Times, even the Pentagon.

What secret has Ferrami uncovered? Can she trust her boss and mentor, or must she put her life in the hands of Steve Logan, the twin she finds herself falling in love with--even though he's surrounded by intrigue and suspicion? But one thing is certain: There are those who will stop at nothing to keep their chilling conspiracy in the shadows. . . .

  • Very good

    A riveting book that intrigues the reader form the very first pages: once you start reading it you simply are not able to stop turning page after page.
    A thrilling novel with ruthless and sneaky characters, a bit of romance and action.
    I awarded it the five stars

    My first Jen Follett book - i will definitely be picking up his other novels to read. This book was written over a decade ago so the information was a little outdated for modern times - test tube babies, IVF and genetic engineering. But i like the pace of the book and the smidgen of romance in it, a reliable crime thriller. It is less about how experiments were done and more about how someone (in this case, Dr Jeannie Ferramie) sought to expose the conspiracy.

  • Another thriller from the master. You don't want to start à Follett book before going to bed, not this one anyway.
