WHAT ARE REPLICAS, AND WHERE DO THEY COME FROM? I’m a replica—a copy who must fill in for her original whenever she’s asked. But now I’ve lost my purpose, and Sunao, my original, is starting to scare me. I can’t tell what she’s thinking at all.

But am I ready to face the truth of what I am and the secrets Sunao has been keeping from me?
