Lou has been cloned.

Along with Early's other four victims, Lou has been brought back to life by the government-funded replication commission. The women gather at a weekly support group, helping each other to navigate a society obsessed with their very existence.

Can she finally uncover the truth?

Praise for Katie Williams:

[A] vivid, clever debut. -O, the Oprah Magazine

Allow me to introduce you to your new favorite writer. -James Hannaham, award-winning author of DELICIOUS FOODS: A Novel

Delightfully weird and humorous...a fascinating exploration of our increasing reliance on technology and our obsession with finding a quick fix for everything. -Shondaland

A sharp and moving novel. -Publishers Weekly
