"Cloning will enable mankind to reach eternal life." Claude Vorilhon In a secret underground lab full of cloned bodies, an ambitious, Brazilian scientist develops a project to back up memories and transfer the souls of paraplegic soldiers into a new body to heal the sick, change the world, and win the Nobel Peace Prize. But when a conniving general manipulates her into using the technology to hijack the president's body and take over the white house while building himself a personal army of cloned soldiers, Jenny must do whatever it takes to return him to his own body, put a stop to his evil plan, and shut down her life's work before anyone else can get their hands on it. EXCERPT: Jenny leveled the gun. "You have one minute to get back into his body before it starts to shut down, Bart." "Who says I'm going back. All I have to do is hang on. I'm staying here." "You won't dare shoot me in the president's body." "I can always make her another." GEORGE W. BUSH: RADIO ADDRESS - AUGUST 11, 2001 "In recent weeks we learned that scientists have created human embryos in test tubes solely to experiment on them. This is deeply troubling, and a warning sign that should prompt all of us to think through these issues very carefully. We recoil at the idea of growing human beings for spare body parts or creating life for our convenience. I strongly oppose cloning. And while we must devote enormous energy to conquering disease, it is equally important that we pay attention to the moral concerns raised by the new frontier of human embryo stem cell research. Even the most noble ends do not justify any means."
