What this book is about
In London for repairs and resupply, Miles Vorkosigan discovers that a clone of himself has been created — and that someone intends to use the clone to kill him. Bujold's fifth Vorkosigan Saga novel is a clever spy thriller that deepens Miles's psychology and raises genuinely interesting questions about identity and the ethics of cloning.
