Everyone has a genetic Alternate—a twin raised by another family—and citizens must prove their worth by eliminating their Alts before their twentieth birthday. Survival means advanced schooling, a good job, marriage—life.<br /><br />Fifteen-year-old West Grayer has trained as a fighter, preparing for the day when her assignment arrives and she will have one month to hunt down and kill her Alt. But then a tragic misstep shakes West’s confidence. Stricken with grief and guilt, she’s no longer certain that she’s the best version of herself, the version worthy of a future. If she is to have any chance of winning, she must stop running not only from her Alt, but also from love . . . though both have the power to destroy her.<br /><br />Elsie Chapman's suspenseful YA debut weaves unexpected romance into a novel full of fast-paced action and thought-provoking philosophy. When the story ends, discussions will begin about this future society where every adult is a murderer and every child knows there is another out there who just might be better.Espanahttp://somuch2thank4.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8956135540720036904.post-60551183516371026742012-05-29T10:17:41.060-04:002012-05-29T10:17:41.060-04:00Elsie is THE BEST.

Does the alternate know that he/she is just a copy? Well, surely if they're hunting each other. Is everyone trained? Should be, since the concept is probably embedded in their world now. But my most important question is this: Why is there a need to have a genetic Alternate?<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by. ^_^ And by the way, yes, I've read the Study series by Maria Snyder.
