Matteo grows up knowing that he is different from other children but wonders why people around him treat him as inferior. He learns that he is a clone of El Patron, a 140-year-old man who survives only through transplants from other clones like Matteo. Matt knows that when people are no longer useful on the opium farm they will become "eejits", a group of people whose brains are permanently damaged to ensure obedience; he doesn't want to become one of those creatures. Through help, Matt will escape, but is there anything that will bring him back to the farm to take over what is rightfully his? Or is it rightfully his?
