Description

Adam Eberhardt has always felt different, but he never would've guessed he was a clone of Albert Einstein. Science geeks don't usually live inside the body of a hulk. A brain that never shuts off can be a blessing or a curse, but Adam hasn't felt many blessings during his sleepless nights. The serial abduction of nuclear scientists, including his crush Margot, triggers a cascade of action that reveals things are not what they have seemed. Military officials dispatch to all corners of the globe to pick up individuals with unusual gray markings on their wrists.

Adam and six other college students make a shocking discovery—they are enhanced clones of some of history's most influential figures, trained from birth to face a looming global crisis. And that crisis has arrived.
