Agents Eckis and Sheen swore an oath to protect the civilian population from the eminent danger of the rogue black market clones known as âDupesâ that can suddenly âpopâ without any advance warningâwhich means any passerby on the street or subway could possibly become an unhinged spree killer on a momentâs notice. In return for their service, however, the public has dubbed Eckis, Sheen, and their fellow agents the âSkin Policeââan insult handed back by a populace unwilling to sacrifice their own civil rights for the agentsâ unprecedented duties in light of the Dupe threat. But what if these illegally manufactured clones doppelgĂ€ngers werenât as deadly as initially believed? What if they could be saved? And, as the underground resistance movement supporting them grows, what if their leader proved to be someone uncomfortably familiar to the Skin Police?
