Terri Talley Venters wrote the e-book Carbon Copy. Wild Child
Publishing released the e-book in June, 2012; the novel has 199 pages.
From New York to the Keys, the world can be a very sinister place.
Child abductions and heart attacks for prominent citizens are the news of the
day for newscaster Lilly Allen. Today, the prominent citizen is also her
boyfriend’s father and the founder of a very prosperous cloning research
facility. He is sick enough to require a new heart and is worried enough about
his company he may not make it until one becomes available. His son, Grier
Garrison, will have to take control of the company while he is incapacitated.
During all of this Lilly’s career is soaring and she is ready for her vacation
with her twin brother. While preparing for her trip, Lilly is frequently finds
people telling her she somewhere has a doppelganger, a bit unsettling but
nothing to worry about. The Garrison company, Create Life Technologies is also
having business setbacks and is moving its base operation from the Keys. As all
of this occurs, Lilly accesses computer files Grier has placed on her computer
and discovers a whole alphabet of names for cloned specimens; they have to be
animals, right? In addition, when she scrolls to find her and her brother’s
names on the lists, she wonders what animal was named after her. Little does
she know how her world is about to change.
Terri Talley Venters is a local writer in Julington Creek and it
was a pleasure to read this e-book. The main character is strong and has just
enough southern charm to keep her enjoyable, though some of the other character
could be a bit further developed. There is drama and intrigue as well as an
interesting view on what could be happening in the cloning industry. Exactly
who is…standing next to you? I look forward to future works from this writer.
