In the glittering underbelly of a near-future megacity, where the ultra-wealthy purchase perfection on the black market, burned-out corporate scientist Dr. Lena Voss accepts a seductive “premium wellness package.” She expects rest and optimization. What she receives is Dr. Elias Crowe — a cold, charismatic genius who has spent years perfecting the ultimate illegal technology: flawless human cloning and consciousness transfer.
Lena’s perfect duplicate is created before her eyes — same face, same body, same voice, but engineered to be stronger, more responsive, more desirable. What begins as intimate, voyeuristic sessions between the original and her copy quickly becomes something far more dangerous. As Elias facilitates increasingly intense encounters and begins implanting “improvements” into the duplicate’s mind, Lena feels her memories, desires, and sense of self begin to blur.
