A hundred years into the future, Mexico is known as Aztlán. Drugs have become legalized and scientists are able to clone humans. The clones are considered useful only for their organs, and by law their brains must be removed at birth. Matt is an exception-a clone of the powerful leader of Opium, a drug-producing country, he is kept intact and raised secretly in isolation. He is ten when a group of children discover him.
