Description
"A plan for peace becomes a fight for survival. Seventeen-year-old Jimi Corcoran is committed to human rights for chimeras -- people who modify themselves with animal DNA. So when she's invited to a gathering of moderate pro- and anti-chimera activists seeking to find common ground, she agrees to attend. But elsewhere, members of a shadowy militant chimera rights group have other plans for Jimi. When they prevent her from joining the summit -- thereby saving her from a bomb they've planted -- Jimi quickly falls under suspicion for the blast. With the FBI keeping uncomfortably close, Jimi and her chimera boyfriend, Rex, investigate the mysterious group. As they get caught up in a complex web of secret identities, shocking experiments, and, ultimately, an apocalyptic plot that threatens humankind, Jimi must come to grips with the fact that she has a personal connection to these revelations -- and her involvement is no accident. Set in a near-future society where science is both celebrated and vilified, Jon McGoran's [...] Spliced series tackles weighty questions about genetic manipulation, artificial intelligence, population control, and how many lives, if any, a revolution is worth. In this [...] conclusion, extremists on both sides square off in an escalating battle between competing visions of the fate of humanity and Earth itself." --,Inside jacket.
