I’m embarrassed, still, by how long it took me to notice. Everything was right there in the open, right there in front of me, but it still took me so long to see the person I had married.

It took me so long to hate him.

Martine is a genetically cloned replica made from Evelyn Caldwell’s award-winning research. She’s patient and gentle and obedient. She’s everything Evelyn swore she’d never be.

And she’s having an affair with Evelyn’s husband.

Now, the cheating bastard is dead, and both Caldwell wives have a mess to clean up.

Good thing Evelyn Caldwell is used to getting her hands dirty.

None

The old question of how artificial intelligence can work and whether human creations are worth as much as humans turned on its head - whether intelligence can be anything but artificial, and whether human beings are worth anything to other humans. Not the first work to take that angle, and perhaps not the ultimate take on it either, but I do like the way Gailey's characters wrestle with it only to trap themselves even further.
