Wolfgang One (The Enigma Trilogy Book 1)

You have lived before. You will live again. You are one in a million, but you are also one of a million.Several hundred years after humanity’s greatest war, the planet exists in a system of harmonious eminence: Everyone is an idealized clone of an influential figure, their DNA perfected to ensure compliance and expel malice, trained from the moment they open their eyes.

In the Sterntar Hive of Assorted Arts, located on a small island in the Pacific, clones of Shakespeare and Marilyn Monroe dine side by side. Mary Cassatt paints Mozart while he practices the violin. Franz Kafka is madly in love with Whitney Houston.

What they all have in common is immeasurable potential and unbearable pressure.The Hive’s first clone of Wolfgang Mozart (formerly the tenth clone in a foreign batch before he was transferred from the capital city) is on the eve of his release into the professional world alongside the love of his life and the friends he has grown up alongside. But his blood test reveals dangerous results: There is something wrong with his DNA. Something crooked.

Something sick. Thus, he is given no choice but to uncover the secrets of his existence and the truth behind his test results, all while trying to prove that he is Wolfgang Mozart, and that he is a good man.The twisted first installment in a brand-new series by award-winning teen author Shanti Hershenson, Wolfgang One is an experiment in nature versus nurture, conformity and individuality, free will, and morality, told through a loveable cast of futuristic yet familiar faces.*No AI was used at any point in the research, writing, editing, formatting, and design of this novel.
