Sixteen-year-old Jimi knows people change, but nothing could prepare her for what's about to happen to her best friend, Del. Del is obsessed with becoming a chimera (ki-mir-a): a person who pays back-alley geneticists, known as "genies," to illegally splice animal genes into their own. The resulting physical changes have scared lawmakers into drafting legislation declaring chimeras officially inhumanβso when Del goes missing, Jimi is desperate to find him before he alters himself forever. Unfortunately, she's too late: Del's already been spliced, and the splice has gone horribly wrong. To save him, Jimi must face down unscrupulous people who are eager to hunt chimerasβall while knowing the choice Del has made means he's leaving her behind.
