The heist of hollow London
by Eddie Robson
In games of betrayal, everyone loses. Arlo and Drienne are 'mades'-clones of company executives, deemed important enough to be saved should their health fail. Mades work around the clock to pay off the debt incurred by their creation, though most are killed and harvested for organs when their corporate counterparts are in medical need. But when the impossible happens and the too-big-to-fail company that owns them collapses, Arlo and Drienne find themselves purchased by a scientist who has a job for them.
