The Magnification Effect

Max Winthrop II, the world's first viable human clone, has lived a quiet lie of a life for eighteen years. But now that human cloning has been legalized in California, the biotech company that created Max will do anything to corner the emerging commercial market. Max wants only one thing: to live a normal life. But the more he tries to hide from the spotlight, the stronger he finds the Magnification Effect. And nobody - not the scientists who made him, not the corporate thugs chasing him, not even Max himself - fully understands what Max is capable of when the Effect takes hold.
