About This Book
Matteo Alacran was not born; he was harvested. His DNA came from El
Patron, lord of a country called Opium -- a strip of poppy fields lying
between the United States and what was once called Mexico. Matt's first
cell split and divided inside a petri dish. Then he was placed in the
womb of a cow, where he continued the miraculous journey from embryo to
fetus to baby. He is a boy now, but most consider him a monster --
except for El Patron. El Patron loves Matt as he loves himself, because
Matt is himself.
As Matt struggles to understand his existence, he is threatened by a
sinister cast of characters, including El Patron's power-hungry family,
and he is surrounded by a dangerous army of bodyguards. Escape is the
only chance Matt has to survive. But escape from the Alacr n Estate is
no guarantee of freedom, because Matt is marked by his difference in
ways he doesn't even suspect.
